The Arkansas Razorbacks start their season this Saturday August 31st, 3:00pm at our new and improved stadium. Whether you are going to watch them take down Portland State at home, at the stadium, or anywhere else, you’ll wanna be looking your best. And, if you’re like me, that will mean being decked out in the latest Razorback gear. In my latest episode of Naturally NWA, I take you to my favorite place for all things Razorback: The Stadium Shoppe on Razorback Road in Fayetteville. 

What’s so special about this place is that it is a family owned and operated shop. I got the chance to interview one of the co-owner and operators, Matt Mann. Matt has been in the business since about the 2016 season, but his father was in this business even long before him. Matt explained his father used to run the University shop in Hog Heaven for many many years. This mixture of experience has made their shop one of the best because they know what their customers want. This place is filled with the coolest Razorback gear in all of NorthWest Arkansas. 

Some of their top selling items include a basic running hog on a plain t-shirt in red, white, gray or black, and also classic sweatshirts with that old time feel. Their hat selection is also out of this world, it seems like there are endless options with all the different colors, designs and styles they offer. Their stuff isn’t just for men, they have great stuff for women and children too, including heels, tank tops, sweatshirts, crewnecks, and onesies! 

They don’t stop at just apparel, one of their top selling items isn’t even clothes! They sell tons of these Kijaro chairs,which are local and customized to the Razorback theme. There’s no need to wonder why these are a hit, all you have to do is sit in one and experience the comfort to want to add it to your game day list. If you buy more than one, they’ll knock off a few dollars from the price. 

That’s the beauty of local businesses; they care about the locals, whether that be the citizens, or other local businesses. They all support each other! So next time you need to gear up for the season or special event, head on over to The Stadium Shoppe on Razorback to support your team, and support local businesses.
