I’m sure the average tailgatress struggles with picking out 6-8 different outfits to wear during fall Saturdays. And female fans of certain schools with awful colors have it worse than others (I’m looking at you Oregon). Beyond the properly worn jersey, girls are pretty much left with the task of finding a sundress featuring school colors or mixing and matching from JCrew. Having faced this task, LSU Grads Amy Chenevert and Gretchen Gilich started Tru Colors Apparel. Their line of tailgating dresses and tops pretty much covers every SEC school. They also have retailers located in the college football hotbeds of the South.
Oh the horror. So they finally get around to releasing Snuggies with college logos on them, which theoretically should be a huge success. But they took an “article of clothing” that any normal person would be timid about wearing in public, and made it more ghastly. Did they just hire the same designers who create the college hats and t-shirts that you find at gas stations and Wal Mart? There appear to be at least 4 different logos on each of those. Why wouldn’t you just put one gigantic logo on it? People already make blankets like this, all you had to do was add sleeves. But I guess it’s not all bad news. For those of you out there that already have shirts like this to wear in September you now have a way to keep warm in November without sacrificing your trademark style.

I get the feeling that rocking a sweater, albeit a vest, in August is not the most comfortable attire for tailgating. Have no fear though Buckeye fans. You can now sport a faux sweater vest t-shirt in a show of support for Jim Tressel.
