Graphic Design
Crafted from soft cotton-blend fleece with a structured varsity silhouette, each vest features a ribbed collar, waistband, and armholes in signature navy, red, and white striping. Embroidered “K” monograms and crest motifs give a collegiate flair, while metallic snap buttons and slant welt pockets offer both ease and style. The neutral base keeps it versatile, while the bold trims make it pop—ideal for layering over tees or knits across seasons.
