Yale University Cotton Grounds Crew Jacket

A WORKWEAR JACKET INSPIRED BY THE YALE GROUNDS CREW

History: In 1948 the Yale Bulldogs baseball team took home the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League Championship, the baseball-only Ivy League conference of the era. The squad advanced to the College World Series that year, led by captain and third-baseman George H. W. Bush. 

The Grounds Crew program celebrates the workers who kept the baseball diamond in tip-top shape. Made from a soft but durable cotton with a touch of stretch for mobility and lined with a lightweight cotton, it’s the perfect layer for transitional temps. Details include a metal zip closure, hand pockets, a chest pocket, sewn felt chest and back lettering, and tab adjusters for dialing in the fit.
