At first glance you would just think the Goodenough Varsity Jacket is a normal varsity jacket that high school seniors wear to show their hometown dominance. I even liked it because of the big "G."
However, upon further examination you will realize that the jacket’s label screams faux. Not only are you wearing a Letterman jacket that has the Goodenough label written where a football or soccer patch should be (which is the equivalent of getting the yellow ribbon when you finished 5th place in your community 100 yard dash and bragging about it), but also you are in your 20s and wearing a Letterman jacket. Unless you are a pro athlete, keep this coat on the rack my past-dwelling friend.
