Developed in collaboration between HOMAGE and iconic sportswear brand Starter, the G.O.A.T. jacket pays homage to the greatest athletes of all time through a never-before-seen combination of two iconic sportswear styles: the jersey and the varsity jacket. Now pervasive throughout popular culture, the G.O.A.T. acronym was popularized by rapper LL Cool J, who, in 2000, released his eighth studio album entitled, G.O.A.T. featuring James T. Smith: The Greatest of All Time.
There’s no doubt about it: Archie Griffin is one of the greatest Buckeyes of all time, and nobody knew that better than OSU coach Woody Hayes who once said, “He’s a better young man than he is a football player, and he’s the best football player I’ve ever seen.” Griffin is the only player to ever win the Heisman trophy twice, and his incredible talent helped propel the Buckeyes to four Big Ten titles and four Rose Bowls.
December 3rd marks the 50th anniversary of Griffin’s first historic Heisman win, and to honor a true OSU GOAT, we’re partnering with EQL to randomly select the purchasers of the first-ever OSU GOAT Jacket.
