Not sure about the state or university jerseys, but the sororities tend to have the coat of arms/crest over the left breast.

I love mine. It's very comfortable, lightweight enough that you won't suffocate in it but heavy enough to keep you warm when it's chilly. It's my go-to for road trips and theme parks now. I also ordered mine a tad smaller than the collegians did, and I think it looks a little more put together than the ENORMOUS shirts on these tiny girls.

I'm the same size and height as the girl in the pic Clemsongirl posted (thank you, Clemsongirl!), so I ordered a small. As someone who came of age in the eighties where spandex and tight jeans were the norm, I don't do "oversize" that well.

But I think if I wear this jersey with skinny jeans or yoga capris, it will look cute.

And my former collegiate chapter in Maine (that I'm also an adviser for in addition to the chapter here in Philly) is putting in an spirit jersey order as well, so if the trend has extended all the way up there, it must be everywhere.

Now I'm toying with wanting one and not.

I would say to be honest with yourself about how it'll look on you. Here's a gallery of them from Google image search to give you an idea of what they'll look like with different bottoms, on different bodies, and in different sizes.

EDIT: Although I would LOVE to see some NPHC spirit jerseys! You should post a picture if you get one.

The chapter I advise, we order shirts. The Alum Relations chair posts them on the facebook page for alums to purchase. We have a set price for shirts if they want to pick them up once they arrive, and another price that includes shipping if the alum wants it mailed. They are also in meeting minutes that are sent out to other advisors. The advisor just emails the alum relations chair and the t shirt chair about what size and then sends a check in. Sigma Gamma has done the spirit jerseys. I know some of the alums ordered them. Not my cup of tea, cute, just not for me.

Hope that helps.

I am in love with these Spirit Jerseys! I've scoured the internet looking for DST versions, but I guess they don't make them for NPHC groups unless they are special order

. Does anyone know where I can order one of these individually?

I can't find a place that will let you order just one, most require a minimum. The smallest is have seen is 6. If you can get 5 other women in your organization who want one, you can place an order.

You can order just one on this site: http://www.spiritfootballjersey.com/ But they don't have ALL the GLOs- just some of them.

There were alumnae wearing them at Convention the night we went to the baseball game.

I liked the first one I got so much I ordered a second from the site AGDee mentioned. It's too hot to wear them now, but they are great to lounge around the house in and also good for casual weekend wear. I like the ombre colors, too.

That's the issue! They don't have any NPHC groups so I would have to get it specially made, and it looks like you need to have 6 or more to do so. I guess I'll have to see if I can round up 5 other people

I can't lie. I'm looking forward to the weather cooling down so I can wear the one I got via a national order.

^^^Did you get the one commissioned by LO chapter? I did! I wish I had gotten a small but I still like it. It's super comfy and great to travel in!

Yeah, I think that was the one! It is definitely super comfy, I've worn it at home some already but it's been too hot outside to wear yet.

Funny thing, the mail delivered it down the street at the local frozen yogurt place and one of their employees is friends with one of the girls who was part of our first MIT class and she sent me a Facebook message letting me know, so I went and got it the next day. Silly USPS!
