Academy Sports + Outdoors Goes Retro With 90s-Inspired Patriotic Apparel Collection
Katy, Texas-based retailer Academy Sports + Outdoors is launching a new collection of private label apparel featuring retro, throwback designs ahead of summer.
The retailer’s first-ever retro collection features is billed as “a tribute to the summers of the 90s,” and includes graphic-print tanks, cropped shirts, boat shorts, a bucket hat, duffel bag and more, all featuring shades of red, white and blue. Non-apparel items in the new collection include a classic Igloo Playmate cooler, webbed lawn chairs, bean bag toss and more.
Prices range from $1.99 to $49.99. The limited-time collection is available now at all of Academy’s retail locations, as well as online.
“Academy Sports + Outdoors is a go-to retailer for customers looking for fun summer essentials and Americana products. This year, we are turning back the clock on family summer memories with our Academy retro product collection,” said Lawrence Lobpries, Academy Sports + Outdoors’ senior vice president of Marketing. “Whether you’re enjoying time on the lake, attending a 4th of July parade, or hosting a backyard barbeque, we hope that our retro collection will help boost your summer family fun.”
Founded in 1938, Academy operates 269 stores in 18 states. The retailer has announced several new store expansions in recent months, growing the number of stores where shoppers can find its private label brands such as Magellan Outdoors, Freely, R.O.W., BCG, H2OX, Mosaic, and O'Rageous.
