And us and PiKapp have polos with our letters/symbol on it. (We have the triangles and they have starshield).

But the jersey thing is big here.

My husband's chapter wears those too. I just bought him a new one to wear at TKE events when he goes back as an alum since his old jersey (which looked almost identical) was from his Freshman year. It's nice to see all the brothers from different generations in them at homecoming.

Lambda Chi were green with yellow, TKE was red with grey, Delt Sig were green with white, Theta Chi were red and white as were Phi Sigma Epsilon/Kappa (they merged while I was in school)... it was cool because, for the women anyway, you knew who was walking down the street from a distance.


A few years after I graduated, they moved to the pullover windbreakers that were popular at the time.

Our campus had them too for all Greeks too. ASAs wore white with red, yellow and white cuffs and bottom. It has 6" letters on the back with our nicknames stitched under the collar. We put our chapter on one arm and pledge class on the other. Our name went on the front and of course it was decorated with all sorts of pins!-such as I<3 XYZ fraternity pins. I still have mine.

Everyone did them on my campus, too, until we switched to the pullover and I'm thinking some of the other groups have, too, different colors and whatnot although both the ASAs and AGDs had white jackets - theirs with red and white trim and ours with red, yellow, and green trim.

Phi Sigs were Yellow, ASTs were Green, TKEs were red, APDs were Purple as were Sigmas, ZBTs were Blue, Delta Chis were Black and the only group that didn't do the baseball jacket thing was Pikes (unless I'm forgetting) - I think they had maroon letterman jackets.

We call can't be you, EW.

Ignore him. Apparently his school doesn't do it so he feels it is okay to bother you since yours does. We like our jerseys because that's what the campus does. You don't have to like it EW, you don't go there. Thank god! :D
I love how each campus has their own rich history in Greek life and their "gear". :)
