Spend on what
matters to you.

Start with the fit and the feel. Then add the details that make the jacket yours.Explore options in the jacket builder ↗

Plan the date, too.

Most custom jackets are handmade in 4 weeks (2 weeks with Rush), plus shipping. Shipping usually takes another 2–10 business days, depending on the service selected at checkout.

01   Body & sleeves
Compare the body fabric and sleeve material separately. Ask about the feel, weight, lining, and care instructions. A familiar silhouette can come in very different materials.Budget move: choose the combination you will actually wear, then check its price before adding decoration.
02   Letters & personalization
A chenille letter, embroidered name, graduation year, and sleeve patches each do a different job. Decide which details tell your story and where they belong.Budget move: list your must-haves first. Check what each addition costs in the builder before committing.
03   Fit & measuring
Use the maker’s size chart rather than your usual T-shirt size. Compare measurements with a jacket that fits, and think about what you will wear underneath.Custom jackets are not returnable for fit. Review the measuring guide before ordering ↗
04   Groups & the final price
Confirm the eligible jacket price, the paid headcount, and the group terms before promising a price to members. Ask how added patches, Rush, tax, and shipping affect the total.Budget move: use a realistic headcount. If you commit to a tier and the final group comes in under it, the group setup terms explain how the difference is handled.
