The Story Behind
The Arkansas Razorbacks have cultivated a legacy of grit and determination since the program’s inception in 1894. From the legendary coaching eras of Frank Broyles to the modern intensity of SEC competition, the “Calling the Hogs” tradition remains a pillar of Southern collegiate culture. This sweater draws inspiration from the classic varsity letterman jackets worn by student-athletes throughout the 20th century. By incorporating the Polo Bear—a figure synonymous with Ralph Lauren’s design history since 1991—into the Razorback narrative, this garment bridges the gap between luxury fashion and the raw passion of the fan base.
The graphic on the chest depicts the bear holding a miniature Razorback cap, a symbolic gesture of loyalty to the team. Every stitch in the bear’s outfit, from the varsity cardigan to the trousers, is rendered through an intricate intarsia knitting process. This technique ensures the image remains vibrant and integrated into the fabric, rather than sitting on top like a screen print. The deep cardinal red hue matches the official university color, ensuring your allegiance is unmistakable from the front row to the alumni tailgate.
Care and Maintenance Guide
To preserve the integrity of the cotton knit and the precision of the intarsia graphic, dry cleaning is the recommended method for routine maintenance. If you choose to wash the item at home, use a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent specifically formulated for natural fibers. Never use bleach or harsh chemical additives, as these will compromise the color saturation of the red dye. Lay the sweater flat on a clean, dry towel to air dry, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can cause the cotton fibers to warp or shrink.
The physical feel of this sweater is substantial, providing a dense, structured drape that resists pilling. The ribbed cuffs and hem are reinforced to maintain their shape through repeated wear, ensuring the garment retains its intended fit throughout the football season. When storing, fold the sweater neatly rather than hanging it; the weight of the cotton can cause the shoulders to stretch over time. Treat this item as a core component of your game-day rotation, and it will remain a staple of your closet for seasons to come.
Is the bear graphic a patch or part of the knit?
The bear graphic is created using an intarsia-knit technique, meaning the design is woven directly into the fabric of the sweater for a seamless, high-quality finish.
Does the sweater fit true to size?
Yes, this sweater follows standard US sizing. It is designed for a comfortable, classic fit that allows for layering over a collared shirt.
Can I put this sweater in the dryer?
No, machine drying is not recommended. Heat can damage the cotton fibers and the integrity of the knit graphic; always air dry flat.
Is the red color an official Arkansas shade?
The sweater features a deep cardinal red specifically selected to align with the official color palette of the Arkansas Razorbacks.
