To me, not much says hardcore pride like a great varsity jacket. I also came across one that Moshua would approve of, hence this post. Now if you are like me, you are a cheap bastard. Dolling out $300+ for a jacket just isn’t in your budget. You’d rather buy 200 20oz bottles of Coke Zero, or a shit ton of candy. That’s how I roll.<\/p>\n

Here’s what you do. Look up vintage varsity jackets on ebay. The jackets last a lifetime so even buying a used one would be ok. Gives it character too. There are a few things you are looking for.<\/p>\n

1. NO embroidered backs. Get out of here with embroidered backs. It’s all about chenille lettering. Plus, removing embroidery sucks and forever changes the jacket. You can’t even cover those spots. So no embroidery on the back.<\/p>\n

2. That’s it. No embroidery. Almost everything else can be covered up or dealt with.<\/p>\n

Take this jacket for example. No embroidery ANYWHERE, and just a giant “W” on the front. That “W” can easily be removed and replaced with an “X.” Or maybe you are a big War Hungry fan. Or With Honor. Cheap pick up.<\/p>\n

This is the one with Moshua’s name all over it. Check that back batch! Lettering can be removed easily and covered with something appropriate. Chest embroidery can go, same with the sleeve patch. Easy. And for $50? No brainer.<\/p>\n

Perhaps your pockets are a little deeper. May I suggest this unconventional jacket? This is for those USHC Pride dudes. Top notch.<\/p>\n
