jacket
Sleeved outer garment
A jacket is a garment for the upper body, typically extending to the waist or hips and opening at the front.
Jackets are lighter or shorter than coats: a leather jacket, a denim jacket, a sport jacket.
The meaning extends to outer coverings generally: a book's dust jacket, the jacket of a potato, the insulating jacket around a pipe.
To jacket something is to enclose it in a protective layer.
