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.

USS Tarawa (LHA-1) was the lead ship of her class of amphibious assault ships — the U.S. Navy's first generation of large amphibs designed to combine the helicopter-carrier role of the LPH with the landing-ship and cargo-ship roles of the LSD and LKA in a single hull. Commissioned May 29, 1976 at Pascagoula, Mississippi and named for the 1943 Battle of Tarawa in the Gilbert Islands, she served thirty-three years across Western Pacific and Persian Gulf deployments including Operation Earnest Will (1987-88), Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm (1990-91), and Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003). Homeported at San Diego for most of her career, she was decommissioned March 31, 2009. This framed ship photo is a tribute to her crew and the legacy of the lead ship of the Tarawa class.
