50th Anniversary Detroit Tigers 1968 World Series Jacket

Detroit Tigers 50th Anniversary Full-Snap Satin Navy and Orange Jacket

If you get chills hearing “Lolich shut the door in Game 7,” or you’ve got a black-and-white photo of Tiger Stadium taped to your fridge—you’re the reason we made this jacket. This isn’t merch. It’s a salute to the team that carried Detroit through one of its toughest years… and came out champions.

What We’ve Got (No Fluff, Just Facts)

50th Anniversary Detroit Tigers 1968 World Series Jacket Back in 2018, MLB dropped a limited run to mark 50 years since the ’68 title. Most sold out fast. The rest? Sitting in closets or going for $300 on resale sites. We built a faithful version—same look, same soul, but actually wearable.

1. Full-Snap Satin Bomber – Navy & Orange

• Material: Heavy satin with soft cotton lining (shiny like the original, but won’t slide off your shoulders)
• Details: Metal snaps down the front—no zipper. Big “DETROIT” across the chest in that block font they used in ’68. And yeah, the 50th anniversary patch on the sleeve, just like the 2018 release.
• Wear it when: You’re heading to a throwback game, showing up to a family BBQ in a Tigers household, or just need to feel like you’ve got Kaline’s quiet confidence.

2. Low-Key Tribute Version

• Material: Slightly duller satin—looks broken-in from day one
• Details: Same cut, but just the Old English “D” on the chest. No big lettering. The 1968/2018 mark is tiny on the cuff.
• For who: You love the history but don’t want to look like you’re in costume at the grocery store.

3. Light Satin Shell (Warm-Weather Option)

• Unlined, so it breathes.
• Slightly longer—tucks better into jeans or layers under a coat.
• Perfect for spring games or walking around Eastern Market repping Detroit pride.

All in XXS to XXXL. We don’t guess sizes—we measure every batch.

Why Trust Us?

We’ve been fixing, cleaning, and copying vintage baseball jackets since before “throwback” was a marketing term. We’ve held real ’68-era team coats. We’ve seen the cheap knockoffs fall apart at the seams.

This one?

• Colors matched to actual 2018 anniversary gear (and cross-checked with ’68 program photos)
• No fake logos—just clean, period-correct embroidery
• Snaps are metal, not plastic. Cuffs are ribbed, not elastic.
• Worn by real fans at Comerica, Tigers fantasy camp, and even a wedding where the groom walked down the aisle to the ’68 fight song.

Which One Should You Get?

• I want it to look like the 2018 official jacket” → Go full-snap with the patch.
• I just want to nod to ’68 without screaming it” → Low-key version.
• It’s 70° and I still want to rep” → Light shell.

Still unsure? Our size chart shows actual chest and sleeve numbers—not just “M fits 38–40.” And if it’s off, we’ll swap it. No hassle.
