Squawk: What’s Your Favorite Piece of Lehigh Merchandise You Still Proudly Wear or Use Today?

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Alumni reflect on the Lehigh gear they’ve kept and the memories it represents.

From the cozy crew neck that’s been your go-to since your first days on campus to the beloved “LU” baseball cap you always have on hand, these well-loved items are more than just wardrobe staples—they summon special memories and showcase Lehigh pride.

For this issue, the Lehigh Alumni Facebook page asked alumni to share some of these prized possessions. Keep an eye on our social media channels for future questions and let us know your thoughts to possibly be featured in an upcoming issue of the Bulletin.

“Nothing beats the Champion Lehigh stitched white-ish gray sweatshirt and a flat brim snapback! Easily the warmest, most comfortable sweatshirt out there!” —Frankie Trovato ’07

“Sweatshirt (Class of 1994); T-shirt is my first Lehigh merch from 1972. My dad was very excited that Lehigh just went coed and his daughter would be able to follow in his footsteps. The bear joined me at Lehigh all four years and now lives in Switzerland!” —Beth Haselbach ’94

“The sweatshirt I got in 1992 when I came for a tour. It is fraying and beaten up, but I won’t get rid of it!” —Allyson Lysaght ’96

“I still have the 1977 National Championship shirt although it no longer fits.” —Dan Krouse III ’80
