Kappa Alpha Psi Bear White Ugly Sweater

Founded on January 5, 1911, at Indiana University Bloomington, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. carries a visual tradition anchored in crimson and cream. The Kappa Alpha Psi Bear White Ugly Sweater brings that fraternal heritage to winter gatherings and Founders Day socials through a clean cream-white pullover base framed by dual crimson-and-white stripes along the ribbed crew neckline. A crimson polo horse-and-rider emblem rests on the upper left chest, while the heraldic Kappa Alpha Psi coat-of-arms shield crest patch marks the left sleeve.

Crimson and Cream 1911 Bear Artwork

At the center of the chest stands an illustrated teddy bear mascot dressed in collegiate layering that mirrors classic campus attire. Every graphic element is rendered directly into the white background for high-contrast legibility:

• Fraternity Varsity Sweater: The bear wears a cream knit sweater featuring bold crimson ΚΑΨ Greek letters above a crimson oval 1911 badge, dual crimson sleeve stripes, and a heraldic coat-of-arms shield crest patch on the left sleeve.
• Layered Preppy Attire: A blue collared denim shirt and a red-and-white polka-dot neckerchief sit neatly inside the bear’s neckline, paired with cuffed dark-wash indigo denim jeans, a brown leather belt with a brass buckle, and tan lace-up leather boots.
• Heritage Typography: Centered below the mascot is a crimson serif inscription reading KAPPA ALPHA PSI® FRATERNITY, INC. -1911- above black POLO BEAR by RALPH LAUREN lettering and a red cursive signature script.

Because the artwork is produced with all-over dye-sublimation printing, the dye bonds directly into the fibers rather than sitting as a heavy surface layer. The warm tan shading of the bear fur, the indigo denim texture, and the deep crimson lettering remain fade-proof and peel-resistant across repeated winter wear.

Everyday Comfort and Seasonal Layering

Constructed from a 95% polyester and 5% spandex blend in a standard unisex crewneck pullover cut, the garment balances smooth interior comfort with flexible stretch across the shoulders. Solid white ribbed cuffs and a matching ribbed waistband hem hold the silhouette neatly in place, making it easy to wear solo with dark denim or layered over a crisp collared button-down shirt during autumn and winter chapter events.

Offered in sizes XS through 5XL, this pullover fits brothers, alumni, and family gift checklists alike, and pairs naturally with the Kappa Alpha Psi Christmas Ugly Sweater for chapter members building a rotation of crimson-and-cream winter knitwear.
