Great. Will be coming through there in a couple of days. Will check it out! You are correct. It is probably be best to by one so they see that they are selling.

Saw those today as well, dropped in to the sports store down by gates 9 and 10, I think. Should have bought one but was running late to catch my plane. There were only two styles but it was good to see SMU shirts for sale

That's where I got the t-shirt. Limited to be sure but beautiful colors in an otherwise drab set of merchandise. THe woman told me that she had problems getting stuff cause SMU wouldn't sell its license. Not sure what that means. Its not like I need another SMU t-shirt, but I hope by sell SMU stuff they add more merchandise.

I can promise this is 100% false. Per CLC, it's a common cop out for retailers. We have worked to get in these outlets, so please buy and show them that our small private school with 10,000 students can move product like the 50,000+ student state schools. Pony Up!

When retailers first start to carry SMU gear, it's alway the cheaply made, phonypony junk that (surprise, surprise) doesn't sell well. Cracks me up. "Let's test this new market with the worst products I can find." Sometimes, I hold my nose and buy anyway. I'm looking at you RallyHouse.

The last time I went to rally house, the SMU product selection consisted of 4 lanyards.

I assumed it was an incorrect statement as the product had the official licensed logo tag on it. I don't know if the woman owned the shop or simply worked there and I wasn't going to challenge the statement. My guess is if she sells enough SMU stuff the 'licenses' issue will disappear.

I haven't put the t-shirt through the washer yet but the colors are vibrant and it appears to be well made. That could change with one washing though.
