This Texas Longhorns jacket is a more fashion-focused alternative to a standard team sweatshirt. Its embroidered graphics make the school affiliation obvious, while the corduroy collar and pockets give it the structure of everyday outerwear.

How did we select these products?
The products in this story were selected from Target’s NCAA fan shop to represent the range of categories, schools and levels of team branding in the collection. NBC Selected did not test these products or evaluate their sizing, fit, fabric quality, durability or long-term performance. Product availability can change, and specific styles may not be offered for every school.
What should you consider before shopping Target’s NCAA collection?
Start by deciding how visible you want the team branding to be. Smaller accessories, including the headband and watch band, add a more limited team detail, while the cardigan, denim jacket and allover-print lounge pants make the school graphics a central part of the look.
You should also check the individual product page for current sizes, materials, care instructions and return information. Because NBC Selected did not test these products, this story cannot assess how they fit or hold up over time.
