Information
This classic letterman jacket brings together the sayings I grew up hearing. At home, my dad and relatives used Fujian slang that translates to “Oh my demons” or “Coughing up blood.” At school, it was “Holy mackerel” or “Oh shucks.”
One of my dad’s closest friends, a master calligrapher, drew the Chinese lettering. We stitched it into fabric, added enamel pins with the English sayings and put red-nosed clowns across the chest and sleeves.
