That includes all the new T-shirts, hats, backpacks and shoes, just to name a few, he said.Their most popular brands, according to Fava, are Nike, Russell, Starter, Jansport, New Era, Reebok, Umbro, Head and Tail.Some of the more unusual items you might find in the store are Ole Miss Rebels shoelaces, Notre Dame temporary tattoos, a Dallas Cowboys laundry bag, Mississippi State playing cards, a Denver Broncos wastepaper basket, a Duke basketball goal, M.C, Escher T-shirts, and one of the latest trends, a huge assortment of “Big Johnson” goods.Hours are from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and from 1 to 5 p.m. on Sundays.
