Description
This is an extremely rare vintage U.S. Naval Academy sweatshirt by Artex, made in the USA in the late 1970s–1980s. Featuring bold “NAVY” block lettering and the classic Bill the Goat mascot, this sweatshirt is a true piece of American collegiate and military history. Artex was known for producing high-quality U.S.-made athletic and collegiate apparel, and this piece showcases all the hallmarks of their era — raglan sleeve construction, heavyweight cotton/poly fleece, and the iconic Artex tag design. These sweatshirts were originally sold in very limited collegiate and academy channels, making surviving examples highly collectible today. Perfect for vintage sportswear enthusiasts, U.S. Navy alumni, or serious collectors of rare American-made garments.

Item showed up mostly as described. It did come with a few minor holes on the lining that I wish was mentioned, but it shouldn’t affect wearability/use. Packaging and shipping were otherwise perfect—especially as it was purchased during the holiday season. Great value from seller and I would buy again.
This seller is outstanding. Got the wrong product initially but he worked everything out and I was extremely satisfied with the customer support and timely shipping of the correct product. He is very reasonable with his pricing and item is just as described. Would definitely buy from him again.
This seller is stellar!! Thank you Michael for great communication, packaging, perfect description, value and fast shipping! Top seller I’ve bought from on eBay!!
