This is more or less APO Policy.
Items that show MEMBERSHIP are restricted to Brothers. Letter shirts/stich shirts, etc, are seen as signs of membership.
Items that show PARTICIPATION are ok for non-Brothers (ie pledges) to wear. Typically such items have "alpha phi omega" spelled out, not the greek letters. These would include conference t-shirts and the like.
there is nothing wrong with a chapter creating a shirt for the pledges. They will usually spell out APO.
PG members must indicate in their promotional materials that they are a PG. They can't wear items that indicate they are members of APO. But items that show they are a PG of APO is ok. So I guess having APO in greek letters AND indicating they are a PG would be ok.
