Our Story

 

Victory Apparel began its journey in 1992, founded by Jay Coatta and his father, John Coatta. It was a brand born out of their shared passion for creating something meaningful and enduring. Unfortunately, in 2000, John passed away due to cancer, and the brand's momentum slowed.

 

However, the spirit of Victory Apparel lived on in Jay's children, who loved the idea of the brand and were deeply inspired by its original mission. This inspiration led to the brand's rebirth, with Jay's daughter, Izzy Coatta, taking the helm as the creative director. 

 

Recognizing the opportunities brought by advancements in the internet and social media, Jay and Izzy decided there was no better time to revive and share the story of Victory Apparel. Together, they are working to build the brand, blending the wisdom of the past with the innovation of the present, ensuring that Victory Apparel's legacy continues to grow.

 

Chi Rho story

​

​

​

 

Victory Apparel is a line of leisurewear and sportswear designed around the historical Roman symbol of the Chi Rho. The Chi Rho symbol was instrumental in the famous battle between Roman emperors and political foes Constantine and Maxentius. The night before the battle, Constantine had a dream in which God instructed him to win the battle in the name of Christ. Then, he was given a vision of the Chi Rho symbol which incorporates the first two Greek letters of Christ.

 

Constantine went on to win the battle and became the sole emperor of the Roman Empire. He then instituted Christianity as the sole religion of Rome. It is the hope of Victory Apparel that people wear our clothing with the same spirit of Victory through Christ that Constantine experienced 2000 years ago!
