Wear the Legacy. Army 8th Cavalry — Air Cav — 1st Cavalry Division.
Some units earn their name in places you don’t forget. The 8th Cavalry Regiment of the 1st Cavalry Division wrote its story across Vietnam, and this 3D-enhanced polo carries that unit heritage into everyday wear with precision and quiet pride. The bold, high-definition Air Cav insignia sits front and center — vivid, layered, and built to represent the regiment’s legacy with the same intensity that earned it. This isn’t a costume piece or a novelty gift. It’s a wearable tribute for the Soldier who was there, the family that waited, and the community that carries the story forward.
The performance platform underneath that insignia is the Core365 Origin Piqué Polo — 4.1 oz. 100% polyester piqué engineered for demanding environments. Moisture-wicking construction pulls sweat away fast and keeps you dry through long days, outdoor ceremonies, reunion weekends, and range events. Built-in antimicrobial treatment controls odor through back-to-back shifts. UV protection means you’re covered for outdoor events, memorial services, and anything the sun throws at a formation. The flat knit collar holds its structure and stays sharp all day — no rolling, no wilting. Heat seal label at the neck means zero tag irritation and zero distraction. DTF and sublimation optimized — the insignia transfers cleanly and crisply onto the polyester piqué surface, holding color and detail across wash after wash.
Six colors — White, Gold, Black, Navy, Forest Green, and Royal Blue — in sizes Small through 4XL. A full-range performance polo built for the entire 1st Cav and 8th Cavalry community.
