My oldest kid just ordered one. HFS, seriously? What the hell is typical for this thing thats worn for like a year?
Realistically, if they do wear it much after High School...that's a problem.

3x state champ when it wasn’t this split bullshite. We played against the blacks too. Still, small school so whoopty fricking doo.
I never wore it a day after graduation. Bet I didn’t wear it more than 25 times total. Girls wore mine. Didn’t get the last year or so’s patches. Some others are loose in pockets. It gets sticky where it’s leather if you keep it covered.
Some kids at the school wear their parents. My kids won’t wear it. Say it’s not cool to do.
frick these pieces of shite. I’m still melting and russelled or whatever.

Ours were free, they came with the jacket and the high school letter. If we wanted any patches along the sleeves for things that we had earned or our name on the back, that cost extra.

Patches will kill you. Daughter got one after being all state in XC in 8th grade. By the time she was finished that thing was covered. Mine only had one patch. lol

I went to two different high schools. One in Las Vegas and the other in Louisiana. Both schools gave me mine.

Way back in 1981, the company that sold the jackets had a program for you to sell M&M’s to help pay for your letter jacket. Myself and many teammates went this route.
Did a summer at the Owl Fun Camp as a junior counselor for mine…

That means you’re deep in the playoffs and it’s cold though

My high school did everything through Josten's. Over the course of 3 years buying a Letterman jacket, a senior ring, and graduation stuff we probably spent about $1500 with that company. That sales rep made a killing.
I lost mine my senior year right after taking my senior pictures a few months before I graduated. Got a call from my old high school three years later that they found it in the gym.

Ours were free… patches and everything… my girlfriend from my senior year has mine… she married with 2 kids now and stay in Dallas … I saw her about 3 years ago … wanted to ask her if she still had it so I could get it.. but it was a awkward time with her husband and boys there to be asking about a jacket from the year 2000…

Letterman Jacket Cost
The ones made out of Buttafuoco are a lot cheaper.

I have Letterman sweaters in the closet from elementary, junior high and high school.
They will eventually wind up in Mogadishu
