Matthew McConahey is a Delt alum and i've heard he's ALWAYS seen wearing his letters at his college at games and the such.

I adore my hoodie, i still wear it. I dont really wear any other letters (besides T-shirts to lounge around in, and my windbreaker if its raining and Im just going to the store, etc), but my hoodie is my prized set of letters.

Get it already!
 

Well as if you need one more person to tell you go for it...
I speak from experience--if you want it now and think you might regret NOT purchasing the sweatshirt later, then by all means....

I am working toward my masters now (a few years after getting my bachelors) on a campus that doesn't even have my sorority. I still wear some of my favorite tri-delt stuff and occasionally people notice. At first, I was a little self-conscious--worried about others thinking I was trying to rekindle my youth or something--but I have pride for my letters and I definitely wear them often.

BTW, I checked out the link and now I am totally tempted!

I wear letters ALL the time and I graduated in 2000. :)

Re: Get it already!
 

LOL!
With all the people injecting Botox in their faces, and having every plastic surgery known to man, I don't think wearing letters would be considered rekindling your youth. :)

I sewed all of my collegian shirts into a quilt and there are days I look at it and want to just wear that because I miss my letters! (My fav was "get lucky with an AGD" Crush Party shirt - - - I loved wearing it when I was obviously pregnant hehehe)

I'm slowly re-building my Alpha Gam apparel in my closet - I actually just ordered that same sweatshirt yesterday tee hee. Go for it! you are a sister for LIFE remember? that includes letter privledges :D

I, myself, am about to order a lettered shirt and will have Alumni embroidered underneath the letters. Just a thought for you!

Our Gamma Rho chapter gets lettered shirts with UW-Oshkosh embroidered underneath them...I think it looks great. Maybe once I look old enough to be an alum I'll get alumna embroidered, but as for now, I'll just let everybody keep thinking I'm still active somewhere.

Unless your sorority has begun to initiate men on a widespread basis, you may wish to embroider "alumnae" instead.. ;)

Thanks. Don't know what I was thinking. That would definitely be more appropriate!:D

For me it would be pretty obvious that I am no longer an active as I am now the advisor, and everyone knows me as such.

:) Yeah, then it would be a-ok. I'm only 20 so I would feel kind of weird wearing an alumna shirt. I like wearing my letters to class occasionally though - it strikes up conversations with Greeks from this campus.

I just graduated in May, and I just wore my letters sweatshirt the other day. I was actually considering getting another one-- gray, I have one in black right now that I got 2 years ago. I wear my party and bid day shirts ALL THE TIME. I love them, I only wish I didn't cut up some of my Homecoming and Greek t-shirts (at the bottom), at the time it seemed like a good idea because they were too big. I still need to buy a plain polo shirt so my mom can embroider my letters on the upper left side. I'm going to be working on a movie set starting tomorrow, and I'll probably be outside most of the time for the next month. I want to find a hat that I can wear with my letter embroidered on them, how cute would that be?! Anyone have one or know of a place I can order that?

I wear mine all the time.............

Bad for the ego though (just like no longer getting carded for alcohol) since no one has ever mistaken me for a collegian.

Hi, my name is jh124, and I'm a total tool;) . I graduated in 1995 and have two sweatshirts and one t-shirt with letters on them. I mostly wear them around the house, sometimes to the grocery store or dogpark. Sometimes I'm a little self concious, but I live 3,000 miles away from my chapter. My letters have actually been an ice breaker a time or two. I've met sisters that have asked which chapter I was affiliated with, or people who had a relative that was in ADPi.

I think if it's something you want, go for it. The worst would be the regret of wanting something and never having it. Of course, I'm 31 and married and don't really care too much anymore...:o
