Details
Inspired by sweatshirts from the 30's-50's, the varsity crewneck is cut from 15oz loopback cotton french terry and 1x1 rib. This high quality fabric was sourced from mills in Japan with a rich history dating back to the mid 19th century. The weight is perfect; not too heavy or too light, making it an ideal piece for year round wear. It features two-tone color blocking reminiscent of styles from that era. To pay tribute to true vintage, our cuff and hem ribbing is cut at 3" high. All seams are finished with merrow edge overlock and double needle coverstitching, to ensure long lasting wear and durability. Not one detail of this piece was overlooked. This style is inspired by vintage high school and college letterman jackets and football jerseys. Traditionally, letterman jackets would feature chenille lettering and chain stitching, which we have incorporated into this crewneck. The stripe detailing on the sleeves are pulled directly from vintage football tops. Back then these stripes were screen printed. Ours is updated with 10oz raw edge jersey applique that is secured down with a narrow zigzag stitch. The vulture mascot on this piece is completely original and hand drawn by our team in Los Angeles. We looked at countless vintage garments featuring mascot illustrations to ensure an authentic feel in our artwork. We imagined a vintage jersey like this would be line dried in the sun after numerous wears, so we applied a unique aging process to this garment to mimic that effect.
