Established on January 13, 1913, at Howard University, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. is recognized across campus quads and alumnae chapters through its signature crimson and cream colors. The Polo Ralph Lauren x Delta Sigma Theta Ugly Sweater pairs a deep crimson-red pullover body with crisp cream-white and crimson striped ribbing along the crew neckline and wrist cuffs, accented by a white polo horse-and-rider emblem on the upper left chest.
ΔΣΘ 1913 Polo Bear Illustration & Insignia
Positioned front and center, the illustrated teddy bear mascot brings collegiate warmth to winter chapter gatherings and Founders Day commemorations. The artwork combines traditional sorority symbols with classic preppy tailoring against the rich crimson background.

Every graphic detail is rendered with all-over dye-sublimation printing so the crimson and cream contrasts stay sharp without adding stiff surface weight to the chest:
Visual Anchors and Fabric Construction
- ΔΣΘ 1913 Bear Sweater: The mascot wears a cream crewneck sweater bearing crimson ΔΣΘ Greek letters above a crimson oval 1913 badge, dual crimson sleeve stripes, and a crimson heraldic Delta Sigma Theta crest patch on the left sleeve.
- Layered Denim and Boots: A blue collared denim shirt and patterned red neckerchief peek from the bear’s collar, complemented by cuffed dark-wash blue denim jeans, a brown leather belt, and tan lace-up leather boots.
- White Serif Typography: Below the bear, crisp white serif lettering spells out DELTA SIGMA THETA® SORORITY, INC. -1913- above white POLO BEAR by RALPH LAUREN text and cursive signature script.
- Resilient Knit Blend: Made from 95% polyester and 5% spandex in a standard unisex crewneck pullover silhouette, the fabric resists fading and peeling while offering comfortable stretch for autumn and winter wear.
Worn over a crisp white button-down shirt for indoor chapter receptions or styled with denim on brisk campus walks, the solid crimson ribbed waistband and striped cuffs keep warmth sealed in without restricting movement.

Sizing and Easy Winter Care
Available in unisex sizes from XS to 5XL, the pullover cleans easily in a cold machine wash with similar colors followed by a low-heat tumble dry or hang dry.
