What to Wear to a Tennessee Game Day
Three kickoff times, four seasons, one stadium full of orange. Here is what to wear for each, from a fan who has been wrong about the forecast more than once.
Early-season heat (September)
Noon kickoff, 90 degrees, no shade in the lot. Dress light and keep the sun off your face.
- Tennessee Orange Athletic Tee ($44.99): lightweight 92% polyester, 8% spandex jersey that breathes. Printed edge to edge, so it doesn't crack.
- Vols Deep Tank ($28): for the hottest days and the lake the morning after.
- Vols Deep Rope Hat ($34): Richardson five-panel rope cap with a moisture-wicking sweatband.
Fall Saturdays (October)
Warm at the tailgate, cool by the fourth quarter. Layer it.
- Tennessee Outline Tee ($34): Comfort Colors heavyweight tee, broken-in from day one.
- Vols Deep Patch Trucker ($36): structured Richardson 112 with a mesh back.
- Tennessee Outline Polo ($59.99): embroidered Adidas Sport Polo if the day starts on a golf course.
Cold and night games (November)
Forecast: 38 and windy. Attendance: obviously. Bring the hoodie.
- Vols Deep Hoodie ($55): brushed fleece, double-lined hood, front pouch pocket.
- Vols Deep Camo Trucker ($38): goes from the deer stand to the tailgate.
- Vols Deep Headband ($20): keeps your hair in line and the sweat out of your eyes.
Rain
Skip the cotton, pick the athletic tee, and wear a hat with a real brim. You will dry out by halftime. Probably.
