Check out the APO Store at the National Office and the APO Collection at Fraternity Row in Rochester (http://members.aol.com/aphio/). This way some of the proceeds of what you buy will stay with the Fraternity.

Does anyone here have an APO greek jacket - if you do please let me know and if you have pics that would be even better!

I would just like some ideas of what other APO jackets look like b/c no one in this area has one - so I would like to set a good example

Yeah I have a line jacket whick consists of my line number on the back, my line name, my entire line name. On the front the greek letters for Alpha Phi Omega. On the right sleeve I have the year that I crossed and on the left sleeve I have my chapter name and the year that we were founded. Also on the collar of my jacket I have 1925. That is about it other than the fact that my jacket is black and the letters are blue with a gold background.

Do you have any pictures that you could share?

Now I know with NPHC - you arent supposed to have a white jacket unless you are prophyte or you are legacy (or at least that is how it is down here) ...

So does the same go for the APO jacket - b/c he only color I want it in is white - I could prolly go for yellow, but I dont want anyone to mistake me for a lady of Sigma Gamma Rho.

You should ask your prophytes.

If they don't have an answer, then do what you want.

My only advice (to everyone) is to not put blue stiching on a black jacket. The blue should always be bordered with yellow. Otherwise, you won't be able to see the blue.

No one here has ever gotten a line jacket like the one I am trying to get - so if I asked they would all be like "I dunno"....So I thought I would ask those who already had them

I really like the color yellow - its looks good with my skin tone - so I will be going out to Durham next weekend to have the order finalized - Ill post pics when it comes in!

Thanks for your help

There isn't anything wrong with you wearing a white jacket. I was thinking about doing white myself, but you know it gets dirty easily so my next step is to get a royal blue jacket. My LB's jacket is gold and it looks good to the T and I have another one who's jacket is black too. It all depends on what looks good on you.

I do apologize, but I do not have any pictures at this time of my jacket.

Ditto. If your chapter doesn't have any traditions that say otherwise, you should be safe doing whatever you feel looks best. There is no national standard in APO when it comes to crossing jacket protocol.

(I had never heard of the white jacket = prophyte/legacy tradition...I don't knock it, though)

Yeah...this is the first that I have heard of such a rediculous rule.

PrettyKittieJ · #14 12-17-2004, 07:14 PM

The rule might just be an NC - B/c I was saying to my friend when I cross a certain sorority that the first jacket I was going to get was going to be white and he was like "Well you cant do that until your a prophyte - or no wait your a legacy so you should be good..." So I have no clue - its the first time I had ever heard of it. But I have noticed around here that the only ones with white jackets are those who are legacy or prophytes....

But thanks for all of the input I appreciate it - I think I am going to go for the gold - literally - it looks good on me

Then you can treat yourself to a white one when you do become a prophyte, and your neo can wear your gold one.
