About Jackets

The Queen’s Jacket is more than just a fashion statement or a jacket you wear to keep warm. Wearing the jacket not only makes you an ambassador for the University wherever they wear it. It is something that visually helps distinguish and mark them as part of a unique community. Whether on campus, the streets of Kingston, or around the world, the Queen’s Jacket represents an unwavering and unforgettable tradition.

The design of the jackets communicates that you are part of the Queen’s community, regardless of one’s background, program and extracurricular interests. Further personalizing the jackets, by sewing on department crests, jacket bars, club mottos, flags and programs of study will represent your place within our community.

This personalization represents a person’s experiences and developing an individual identity within the campus environment.

The notion of obtaining a new jacket signifies that you will have a fresh, new start at Queen’s, but the right to wear the jacket must be earned. Thus, first year exams must be completed before they can don their jackets. The colours of each jacket vary by faculty, and are available in either vegan or leather.

After successfully completing your first year, you can then sew on the pass crest: a Queen’s logo with the year motto over it on the right shoulder. Bars can be achieved based upon completing a designated task and are available for your discipline. These include your orientation group name, being an orientation leader, living in residence and more.

.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.

The number found on the left sleeve indicates the year you graduate. Patches include major of study and faculty society mottos, as well as the official school crest with university motto and other assorted symbols. All students are encouraged to purchase a jacket to be part of this long-standing tradition at Queen’s and to represent their part within this community at large.
