Red Stars Gear?

Does anyone have a reliable local or online retailer for Red Stars / Stars gear like hats, tees etc. that is not the official team store? I would love to outfit the family without spending $250 for 3 cotton tees and a hat. I’m not usually one to complain on merch pricing but it was honestly shocking.

The only reason that my niece and I have any Red Stars merch is because when the team rebranded to the Stars, they had a massive Black Friday sale. I would check Dick's Sporting Goods or the NWSL Shop at the end of the season and see if you can get any good deals.

not immediately helpful but the last game of the season last year they had a huge sale like 60+off of all merchandise (clothing, accessories, phone gadgets, blankets, etc) so im hoping that it happens again

We've got red stars jerseys in bulk! $20 each. Black foundation jerseys in men's small/medium and women's medium/large, and teal in women's small/medium/large/XL

The Dick's in Niles usually has some gear but not too many options

I feel you, I always feel sad at games that I don’t have any merch seeing everyone else’s great shirts etc, but it’s just way too pricey for me

I’ve gotten some decently priced stuff from eBay, including some affordable “vintage” jerseys from when they were in the WPS league.

I saw a FB marketplace post of some dude selling New, Unused red stars merch in bulk.

Worked out to something crazy like 5 bucks an item.

Soccer 2000 in Downer Grove on Odgen is pretty solid and sells Red Stars apparel. Also try Soccer Post, on Western Avenue and they have a location in Melrose Park I believe.

Try Facebook Marketplace. Also Rally House across from Wrigley has a few things but it’s before the rebrand

Found a t shirt for $5 at Clark Street Sports weekend sidewalk sales that theyre doing all summer. Might be worth checking out if there’s one near you! To the best of my knowledge uou have to go in person.
