Vintage Lee Sport Youth To Youth Sweater Size XL

Vintage Lee Sport Youth to Youth Sweater — Size XL — heather gray crewneck sweatshirt with a collegiate crest design on the front. "YOUTH TO YOUTH" arched across the top in dark red/maroon block lettering. A heraldic shield in green with a "Y" monogram at the center, flanked by olive branches in a laurel wreath. A red banner across the shield reads a Latin motto. "MY CHOICE • DRUG FREE" in dark text below the crest. Lee Sport tag at the collar. The crest design gives the anti-drug message a prestigious, university-style presentation.

Youth to Youth was a peer-led substance abuse prevention program — and like D.A.R.E., the merchandise has become a vintage collectible in its own right. The collegiate crest treatment with the Latin motto and laurel wreath gives this sweatshirt a varsity aesthetic that transcends its original purpose. Lee Sport made quality heavyweight sweatshirts through the '90s. The "My Choice • Drug Free" message on a vintage crewneck has the same ironic appeal that made D.A.R.E. shirts a phenomenon in the resale market. A genuine '90s artifact.
