Homefield Apparel

As of publication of this article, Homefield Apparel has FINALLY lived up to it's nickname. "The Good Brand" has released the BEST lineup of vintage college apparel, pulling from five different historical logos that have been used by Kansas Athletics.

Let's be upfront here (even with the disclaimers all over the place) and say that this is a sponsored post. That means we here at Blue Wings Rising were compensated for this specific article. But as you will see below, we were all excited enough for this release that we probably would have talked about it anyway.

I can truly attest to just how comfortable the apparel is and how great the vintage logos are. I currently own 8 shirts from Homefield, with an eclectic assortment of gear from the Delaware, Iowa State, UC Irvine, BYU and more, all because the logos were THAT amazing. And I probably wear the shirts way too often, but they really are that comfortable.

If it seems like I'm excited, that's because I am. I personally have made way too many pleas to Homefield and the KU Athletic Department for this line, and when I finally heard it was coming, I couldn't wait to talk about it with everyone. And if you look at the reaction throughout Twitter, this is highly anticipated among Kansas fans as well.

If you missed the buildup throughout the week, I jumped on a Twitter Spaces with Homefield earlier this week where we educated Connor at Homefield about Kansas, and he shared how they came up with the lineup.

But in case you weren't sufficiently hyped, I had some of the staff here at Blue Wings Rising point out their favorite shirts in the lineup. Here are our favorites:

"Beware Of The Phog"

Homefield Apparel

Kyle Davis: A vintage nod to the cathedral of college basketball, a reference to an immortal phrase, and a nice red alternative to the tons of blue and white KU shirts out there. What's not to love?

1912 Jayhawk (aka "Sexy Legs") Sweatshirt

Steve Fetch: This sweatshirt has my all-time favorite logo, so this is an easy pick for me.

Lucas Murphy: This is an absolute clean look sporting a classic historical Jayhawk logo.

Wave The Wheat T-Shirt

Brendan Dzwierzynski: I LOVE this shirt. The 1929 Jayhawk deserves more pub and that shirt is absolutely goregous. Plus more KU stuff on red is a win.

Derek Noll: Kansas fans are used to Waving the Wheat after basketball games, and now they can show that off all the time with this fantastic looking shirt.

1941 "Angry" Jayhawk Sweatshirt

Sarah Mitts: I have to go with this sweatshirt. What better way to warm up while also passively-aggressively sharing your feelings with the world?

Kansas Relays T-Shirt

David Potter: I really like the Angry Jay head on the blue background. Even without the nod to the Kansas Relays, this shirt would be absolutely perfect.

Hail To Old KU T-Shirt

Andy Mitts: There are way to many great ones to pick a "favorite", but I especially like the way the Jayhawk perches on KU, and the iconic ending to "The Crimson and The Blue" creates absolute perfection.
