Harvard Invents a Clothing Line

Harvard’s Clothing Line

So one of the most prestigious schools in the country has signed up with a firm to create, design, and market clothes… I don’t know, inspired by campus life at Harvard.  Or the stereotype of campus life at Harvard?  Right.  I’m not sure what they’re going for either.

The Clothes, like the College (sorry… UNIVERSITY) won’t be cheap.  $100+ for an oxford shirt.  Close to $500 for a blazer.  And expect lots of dark red.  (sorry… CRIMSON)

Hey, at least they’re doing it for scholarship money.  But does a school that charges that much really need to raise money outside of their own alumni?

Michael Grynbaum from the New York Times explains.

And here’s the obligatory photo gallery of clothing pieces worn by too-cool-for-school male models with their mouths slightly open.
