How to Rep Your Hometown with Style

Your hometown helps shape who you are and tells your story, so why not wear that proudly? Whether you have lived there your whole life or just recently made it home, showing off your city can be both stylish and meaningful.

Ways to Style Your Hometown Gear

Pair it with a Flannel

One way that you can style your hometown gear is by pairing it with a flannel. Perfect for fall, you can layer a hometown tee under a cozy flannel or coordinate it with a matching hat. Either way, you’ll stay comfortable while repping your town in style.

Turn it into Streetwear

Turn hometown merch into streetwear by pairing a hoodie or graphic tee with joggers or cargo pants. Layer with jackets like denim or bombers, and finish the look with sneakers and accessories for a street-ready vibe.

Elevate the Look

Want to take your hometown gear beyond casual? Try styling it with a midi skirt and boots for an effortlessly elevated look. For the guys, throw on a nice jacket over one of our shirts or sweatshirts to keep it looking good but still representing your town.

Add on Some Accessories
