NBR: Where to buy a letterman jacket?

DH for some reason really wants a letterman style jacket to put all his punk rock patches and whatnot on it.  (I swear I am not some cougar who married a teenager, even though it seems like it sometimes).

His birthday is Friday and I was wondering if there was a place in town where I could get one. I don't know anyone who works at or goes to high school and have no clue where to start other than goo gle.

Thoughts?

    Total shot in the dark - but what about one of those places that sells high school rings and whatnot? Jostens  - is that the company? They might not  have them, but they might - or might know who does sell them?

    If you can't find it locally, you could buy him a new patch and have him open it.  Or take a picture of the jacket and wrap that up?

    Not sure if it's different here/now, but when/where I got mine they wouldn't just sell you one. You had to bring in proof of lettering, and then they were all locally custom made. It took months to get mine. :-/  It was the same in both states I went to HS, but neither was this part of the country.

    m_and_m- when I was taught theatre, I had to order jackets for my kids who lettered.  It had to be done through the school, the kids couldn't go buy them for themselves.  Same thing when I was in high school- everything had to be ordered through the school.

    Not local but I'm sure eBay has sellers. That way you could bypass the ordering through a HS thing.
