The Masters Tournament, held annually at Augusta National Golf Club, is renowned for its prestigious green jacket, which has been exclusively crafted by Hamilton Tailoring Co. in Cincinnati since 1967. The tradition began in 1937, inspired by the practice of club captains wearing matching jackets in England. The first recipient was Sam Snead after his victory in 1949. Each jacket reportedly costs around $250 to make, although this figure remains unconfirmed. The current champion can take the jacket home for one year, after which it must be returned to the club. Notably, only one jacket is awarded per champion, regardless of how many times they win the tournament. The defending champion has the honor of placing the jacket on the new winner, a tradition that adds to the ceremony's allure. Despite its fame, Hamilton Tailoring Co. does not sell the jackets to the public, maintaining an air of exclusivity around this iconic piece of sports attire.
