Here’s where to get Kansas basketball championship shirts and gear around KC
It’s T-shirt time, Jayhawks fans.
Kansas’ men’s basketball team finished the mission and brought Lawrence its fourth NCAA national title. KU defeated North Carolina 72-69 on Monday in an instant classic.
Before KU’s parade, make sure you’re dressed properly. Stores around Kansas City and Lawrence already have their championship gear in, and if you haven’t done so already, now’s your time to get some.
Here’s where you can get your hands on KU’s championship merchandise in person or online.
ACADEMY SPORTS + OUTDOORS
The locations in Liberty, Olathe and Overland Park have championship gear on their merchandise floor now, along with the option to purchase can coolers, flags and lanyards online, among other things.
CHARLIE HUSTLE
The banner on the website says “Rock Chalk Champions” and you can get special merchandise from the local clothing store here. They have eight new designs to commemorate KU’s victory over the Tar Heels.
DICK’S SPORTING GOODS
The first thing you see when you go to Dick’s Sporting Goods’ website is a banner congratulating the Jayhawks on their victory. Their stores are spread out across the region, so find your closest store here. You can also order shirts, hats and more online here.
