A Tailor,

Your question is more interesting than you think as there are university colors and then there are university athletic colors and then there is at times home and away colors and there are historical and current colors...

Then if you start with University official Pantone colors (which is where we start) you have to interpret the colors on silk which can be tricky at times.

Indiana's cream was very difficult to get correct - but now we are very happy with our Indiana silk.

As time goes on we add to our collection - suggestions are always welcome - did you have a certain school in mind?

University stores usually sells them. The Hober ones are absolutely gorgeous, but vineyard vines makes them for many schools and sells them at the store.

I always wanted to get one for work. Unfortunately all the ones they sell here have little logos and rodent faces on them.

If you're after European Universities Ben Silver has a great collection.
