Since 1998, I have had my red hoodie as my old standby clothing of choice. j gave it to me for our first Christmas, and hoodies were always a a staple of my wardrobe. I liked the simplicity of the "LOUISVILLE" over a negative image "1798" (these were made for the bicentennial celebration of the founding of the University of Louisville) embroidered on the left breast.
It has served me well in many different adventures, from San Francisco...
...to the falls near Lake Bled in Slovenia.
I was glad a couple years ago when I was in Boston meeting t and his brother d for lunch at Quincy Market, the first reaction I got from d after not seeing him for about 2 years was a deep belly laugh and "The red hoodie." Not being 6'5" with red hair, it was the only way to find me in a crowd.
So here's to you red Louisville hoodie, for the many years (and some memorable UL victories). Hopefully there are many more in your future (I've looked for similar replacements, and current choices lack the minimalism of its design).
