[[Leather jackets]] are usually ordered twice during the year, once in the fall semester and once in the winter semester.  Out of tradition, students do not purchase their leather jacket until the beginning of their second year, as many students may change disciplines, or even faculties, after first year.  Students generally adorn their jackets with their year and discipline, a common phrase such as 'SKULE', '[[SPS]]', or '[[Engineers Rule the World|ERTW]]', and patches of the various organizations which they are involved in. Starting in the 2008-2009 year, 'E4TW' (Engineers 4 the World) began to appear on leather jackets, as students preferred to focus on the responsibilities engineers have to the world (also, it is a slogan on the Engineering Science banner outside the Bahen Center).

[[Coveralls]] are typically purchased by students in March or April of the first year.  Coveralls provide an excellent way for Skule™ students to show their Skule™ spirit while giving them an item of clothing to get dirty in during practical activities.  Coverall decorations can vary greatly from student to student, from the simple addition of sewn patches to an elaborate circuit layout or other designs cut out of fabric and sewn on.
