On campuses across the country, it is nearly impossible to see more than a handful of students walk by without seeing someone in a t-shirt or hoodie bearing a school mascot or insignia.  While this look is certainly acceptable while you are in school, it is a bit tougher to pull off if you are spending your days in an office.  Well, thanks to Brooks Brothers, showing some school spirit in a more formal environment is now easier than ever.  Just yesterday, the first wave of their highly anticipated Collegiate Collection went live on BrooksBrothers.com.

For their initial foray into the Collegiate apparel business, Brooks Brothers selected fifteen* of the finest institutions in the country to showcase their wares, and each school has been treated to a line that will fit in anywhere from the classroom to the boardroom.  The collection is made up of many of our favorite Brooks Brothers items, and branded in a way that let’s the world know where your allegiance lies without being too over the top.  Non-Iron Dress Shirts ($99.50), both patterned and solids, feature a school logo on the cuff, Merino Sweaters feature a small mark on the left chest ($109.50), Tonal Golden Fleece Polos ($69.50) let you wear your school pride on your sleeve, and an assortment of ties ($79.50) range from all over logo print to more understated guard stripes with a single logo.  If the Freshman class of the Brooks Brothers Collegiate Collection doesn’t include your favorite school, have faith.  We have a feeling that this line is going to expand pretty quickly.

*The Brooks Brothers Collegiate Collection currently features items for the following schools: University of Alabama, Auburn University, Boston College, Columbia University, Cornell University, Georgetown University, the United States Naval Academy, New York University, University of Notre Dame, Ohio State University, Princeton University, Stanford University, Vanderbilt University, University of Virginia, and Yale University.
