NPC/NIC groups have had jackets and such for years, but the things I'm talking about are fairly recent - they're not long-held traditions for them or something. I was under the impression crossing jackets were so correct me if I'm wrong.

I understand what you're saying.
NPHC organizations have shared ideas and practices with NPC and NIC orgs for a long time. Sure, crossing jackets as we now know them may have been around since the 70s. But to me, it's just a jacket.
And don't forget.... just because one org in the NPHC does things doesn't mean it was truly meant to be shared by the entire NPHC. Ten years ago, I only knew the Ques to wear painted boots and it was more or less a national thing. Ten years later, I've seen Alphas with one black boot and one gold boot, Sigmas with blue boots, APO members at HBCUs with gold boots with blue laces....
I know that was a long tangent to just say that it doesn't matter, lol.
