When I was in HS, decades ago, HS letter jackets and sweaters ranked just below a Corvette in status pecking order. Girls wore them as gifts from their jock boyfriends.

Nowadays no one around here seems to even own one.

When did letter jackets go out, and why?

Thought it might be fun to revisit this post. Son is HS Freshman & Dad told him he can get his jacket as soon as he 'Letters'. Daughter is a Jr in HS she has her Lettermans jacket with her cheerleading letters as well as her Wrestling and Track Boys Varsity Team Manager Letters.

Are these jackets out or are they slowly coming back?
