Question for Wolverine Devotee Re: Locating Apparel

Submitted by goblue20111 on

Is there anywhere I can purchase the sweater Harbaugh is wearing in this photo? 

There's a similar one of Woodson floating around on the internet wearing the same sweater that I can't seem to find.

TYIA.

You mean this?

Those are given to Varsity lettermen. I'm sure someone could make one, but I've never seen one for sale. Those have been around a long time.

These sweaters are only ever seen in All-American portraits. I'd bet you anything these days the players don't actually get one, but just wear one that fits out of a stock of 'em at Schembechler Hall. They're all the same, and have been for decades.

Two things that I would absolutely love to locate:

Columbia (the brand) faded army green Michigan long sleeve with white lettering and the seal on the front. Bought around '96 (at Ulrich's?), and haven't seen anything like it since. 

The type of shirts they had at Steve and Barry's around '96 that simply had MICHIGAN in white letters on cool faded colors (old school maize, army green, faded red, etc.)

It's been really hard for me to find any clothing that isn't brightly colored/patterned, covered in addidas logos, or completely esoteric (I'm looking at you, MgoStore). I recently got one of those American Aparrel shirts from underground shirts (not bad, but still too yellow) and have a long sleeve blue Champion, but really miss those (relatively) old shirts.
