Since I live 'out of state' it forces me to stock up in batches. Lots of decent deals over this past off season. Over this off season I picked up two hats, one red and another in (mourning) black. Also two long sleeve 100% cotton shirts, each to match the hats. I have a red polo to match a white one I already had. Although both from same maker, the newer red one is better shaping than older white version. (Fits my shoulders way better for sure.) One light gray 100% cotton Husker tee. And a pair of long basketball shorts. Pretty modest haul, but added enough to wear something Husker related yet completely different every day of the week.

I'm hoping to stock up this summer on some new gear. Most of my current stuff doesn't fit well - damn washer and dryer keep shrinking all my clothes.
I have a few nice polo's - I wish I knew what the fabric was. It's not mesh but it's pretty light and fits well. I need to get some more of those.
On a side note, I have a storage bin or 2 full of Husker gear that is more winter type - sweaters, long sleeve shirts, heavier stuff - that I packed away when I moved to a warmer climate. I discovered a bunch of unworn shirts, polo's etc in there. If I lost some weight, I'd have an entire new wardrobe. They might be 20 years out of style but hey, its Husker stuff.

Being a Graphic Designer as a Profession, I need more than just your basic "N" "stuff."

I cater to the more creative Nebraska gear. For example, I was in Fremont's Sapp Brothers truck stop, and saw this really cool version of Husker gear on a T-shirt, so I got it.

Bottom line: don't just hang out on Addidas/Fanatics fan sites, you can find some really neat stuff from unexpected sources.

Sooooo...I haven't gotten anything for awhile. :-)

I bought Riley and Frost themed shirts when they were hired.

Given the track record of how that turned out - I am on a "no buy" order for Husker gear until Rhule wins 6 games.

Yeah, I'm in the same position. Win 6 games and I'll be decked out in new Husker gear. I still have K-State sux gear.

Husker stuff NEVER goes out of style.

Every year at Christmas time when I'm asked what I want I just say "anything with HUSKERS on it.". So I usually get 3 or 4 shirts or hoodies etc.
This past December my son in laws grandmother passed away, his grandfather had passed 2 years prior and as he was the only grand kid real close to his grandparents he pretty much inherited everything. His grand father had been a HUSKER fan of course but the shirts coats etc wouldn't fit my son in law so he asked if I wanted them so I got several shirts and 4 or 5 wind breakers. Nice little haul.

Time to stock up. I only have a Huskers hoodie. Threw most of my stuff away during the dark years. Gonna check out Husker Hounds on the recommendation of fellow UNO jimbosc.

A “Frost Warning” t-shirt and $1.29 will get you a McChicken at McDonald’s.

I remember when those first came out. We had gone out for breakfast and a lady at the table next to us was wearing one. I asked her where she got it and she said her son-in-law was producing them and had given her one. Don't know if it was true or not. I procrastinated about buying one and boy was I glad I didn't waste my money on that one.

Trust me, go to Goodwill after the season is over. During November and December and January many disillusioned fans dump all those new fashion Husker gear that comes out in August. Much of the stuff will still have tags on them. I must admit, I cut a smart image with my New Old Stock Husker Gear while bass fishing in the spring.
