All About It
LETTERS
How do you make the letters so cute? Well that’s up to you!
You can choose any fabric color for the main lettering and the outline lettering. A plus? You can also choose the color of your stitching! Make it match your colors for sorority Recruitment, even better, your Bid Day theme!
The letters are two fabrics stacked on top of each other - so they will be stiff. On the bright side, it guarantees long lasting wear. Match the fabric of your letters to the sleeve rings on the letter jersey!
FIT
The stitched letter jersey is the perfect oversized fit. Looking for a more true-to-size fit? Just size down! High-quality, comfortable fabric that will last you a lifetime! (Or at least your whole membership)

Can You Keep A Secret?
Back in the day (so like 10 years ago…) stitched letters used to be a privilege!Isn’t that crazy!?
Here are some traditions that follow the shirt’s history:
- Stitched letters could only be worn after your initiation.
- Stitched letters could only be worn by current chapter members of the sorority.
- If you decided you wanted to give the shirt away, it could only be passed onto another current member. Which means, no thrift bins!
Now, these are just a few strange traditions, however, we can drop the tradition and keep the cute design!

Tie It All Together
HOW TO STYLE
SPORTY: Familiar with the french tuck? Take the lowest point of the jersey's hem line and tuck it into a tennis skirt! Pair with scrunched socks and chunky sneakers.
CASUAL: Throw on your fav pair light washed jeans! Pull the hem of your shirt, twist it and tuck it into your sports bra! This gives it a fun and unique cropped look.
PREPPY: Follow your favorite cropped shirt technique and add colored leather pants and cute heeled booties! Throw on your favorite jewelry to complete the look!
BID DAY BASKET
Welcome your new members with a goodie bag they can’t resist! Throw in atrucker hat that has your sorority letters. Even better.. Make the hat match your Bid Day colors!
Can’t get enough baskets for all your new members? Ditch the basket - it’s really just a technical term - and give them the tote bag of their dreams! Have it printed with your letters, Bid Day theme, or any trendy design! Add some stickers, a cute cup and your members will officially be spoiled!
