True vintage 1960s men\'s rugby stripe turtleneck in bold black and gold, ribbed knit in 100% Orlon acrylic with the original \"His Tweeter\" label by Trend Fashions. It came from a 1960s Wake Forest University graduate, and black and old gold are Wake Forest\'s colors, so this is the sweater a Demon Deacon would have worn to a game in 1965. Also perfect for Pitt, Iowa, Purdue, Mizzou, Vanderbilt, Steelers, and Bruins fans, or as a 60s mod piece.
WHAT IT ISWide horizontal stripes in black and marigold gold, a tall 4 inch ribbed turtleneck, ribbed cuffs and hem. Orlon was the premium synthetic of the 60s: it holds color, does not itch, and washes easily.
