Throw Back Prep Thursdays Chipp Clothier


I decided to bring it way back with this Throw Back Prep Thursday segment with a ad by  well-known Ivy League clothier Chipp. A very brief summary about Chipp. Chipp was founded by Lou Prager and Sidney Winston in 1947. Sidney Winston worked for J.Press before he founded Chipp. The Ivy League clothier dressed President John F.Kennedy. The clothier sets itself apart from its fellow Ivy League look clothiers by offering clothes in more color. Chipp also introduced embroidered corduroys, and patch madras. I will write a more thorough article on Chipp soon. Stay Crispy!!!
