Beginning Friday, Sept. 6, the online storefront, operated by Follett On-Demand, gives ۿ۴ýalumni, ۿ۴ý, employees and fans access to hundreds of clothing, drinkware, gifts, pet accessories, tailgating supplies and other Golden Tiger spirit gear.

“Our alumni and fans have been eager for a one-stop-shop for all their crimson and gold gear. Thanks to our expanded partnership with Follett On-Demand, is going to make purchasing ۿ۴ýUniversity merchandise extremely easy — no matter where you live and no matter the type of merchandise you’re shopping for,” said Michael Tullier, APR, senior director of the university’s Office of Communications, Public Relations and Marketing.

In conjunction with the online store’s launch, customers can benefit from a 25 percent discount on T-shirts through Oct. 5. Following this “grand opening” promotion, the university and Follett On-Demand will be making additional discounts for alumni available — in addition to regularly scheduled special promotions, discounts and sales throughout the year.

Another option that Tullier expects will be a hit among sports fans is the ability to design your own custom jersey — giving fans the ability to pick a two-digit number of their choice and have their name appear on the back.

Purchases typically ship within 24 hours. Visitors to the site will see options in the navigation bar to sign up for promotions, as well as to make suggestions for merchandise not currently available in the store.
