Let's see, I have crossed into my thirties. I have my blazer with coat of arms patch that I sometimes wear to alumni events. When the weather is cool and I am on the river rowing I generally wear my old letter sweat shirts and if cold enough I wear a wool warm up jacket with letters. If the sun is really bright I have a ball cap with letters that keeps the glare out of my eyes. I have been known to wear my pin to alumni events. I could care less what some random GDI has to say. I could care even less if any comments were forthcoming from some jerk who belonged to some sort of bottom feeder house of which he wasn't proud enough to wear his own letters. I don't see this as a fashion statement but rather as a matter of comfort and convenience. I sure as hell am comfortable showing my letters. I'd probably wear my old high school letter sweater (warmest damned sweater I ever had) if my sister hadn't helped herself to it years ago. Around the office its pretty much conservative three piece suits, button down shirts, and repp ties. At home its pretty much khakis, flannels, or cords and tweed jackets if I am going out. I haven't changed how I dress since forever and I see little reason to change now.
