'47 X J.Crew brushed wool Penn State sweater
that pays homage to vintage campus style. Twin brothers Henry and Arthur D'Angelo arrived in the United States from Italy in 1947 and got their start selling sports memorabilia outside Fenway Park. More than 75 years later, '47 is known for its attention to detail and family-first mentality. Our limited-edition collab features chain-stitched lettering on our soft brushed wool sweaters. Inspired by classic Shetland sweaters, this 100 percent wool crewneck is brushed for softness and the textured, "hairy" appearance it's known for. Though this type of sweater has been around for centuries, it gained popularity with college students in the midcentury and became a staple of Ivy style. Whether you wear it with chinos, denim or a suit, it's always the right choice. Please note that the sizes listed are men's. To find your women's size, order one size down for a comfortably relaxed fit. For example, a men's small is similar to a women's medium.

Perfect Penn State gear!
1 day agoI bought this for my husband and he loves it! I’m so tired of seeing everyone in ugly hoodies and fleece. This sweater is a much more stylish and warm option for college gear!

2 weeks agoI bought this because I support Penn State even though they really stink in Football right now. I think this is a really nice sweater, and even if it didn’t say Penn State I think I would still like it.

We Are! (Penn State!)
September 27, 2025I ordered the Penn State sweater for my husband as a belated bd gift and he loves it. It does have a retro vibe and feels like quality. I have never paid so much for a wool sweater but this is one of a kind. (I couldn’t use my college discount, go figure.) It’s a mid-weight sweater, not heavy so it can be worn in later fall around here. It is a little itchy since it’s 100% wool but an under layer can remedy that. The sweater arrived the day after I ordered it which was a pleasant surprise. I do recommend if you are looking for an old school vibe, well made sweater. To be honest, I still think it’s over priced for a basic wool sweater but the style is very appealing and not something I’ve seen elsewhere. It’s a sweater that should last many years. Go Nittany!
