Grasshopper Club Intarsia Knit Cotton Sweater

Intarsia Knitted Grasshopper Crewneck Imported As Richard Press, grandson of Jacobi (J.) Press, himself, tells it, “The Grasshopper was our signature emblematic tie at our New Haven store near the Yale campus. A tale circulated of a Smith coed asking her Yalie date if the grasshopper motif tie he was wearing signified membership in a club. Thinking quickly, the nimble-witted Eli responded that yes, indeed: he had been ‘tapped’ by the Grasshopper.” And so the Grasshopper Club was born.
