Varsity / Cruise Jackets
Cruise jacket sizing runs true to standard letterman fits. Check the size chart photo in each jacket listing for exact measurements.
How to measure: lay a shirt that fits you well on a flat surface. Measure across the chest from armpit to armpit (chest width) and from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem (length), then compare to the chart.

Behind every sailor of the 1984-85 cruise stood a family holding the home front together. The Cold War was still very much alive, but Gorbachev's rise to power in Moscow offered a cautious hope that the long nuclear standoff might someday have an end. Through months of separation, the families of USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70) supported their sailors across thousands of miles of ocean. This shirt honors those families and the quiet courage that sustained the crew.
