Tailgate: Game Day

Tailgate: Game Day

  • There’s a lot of vintage inspiration out there, but the guys at Tailgate thought they could do it even better. That meant getting back to their roots: hometown football, flannels and Iowa. Starting out with ultra-soft vintage college tees, Tailgate now produces a line of perfectly broken-in button-downs that will be your favorites from the moment you put them on. And they're a bit more tailored than your dad’s, so you can root for the home team in style.   
  • It’s starting to get cold out there, which means it’s time for some football and some tailgating. Now that we’ve taken care of the dress code, here are a few other ways to make the most of your parking-lot outings:
  •  
  • 1. Ohio State tailgaters have been making 200-pound cakes in the shape of the team stadium, known as the Horseshoe, since 1991.
  • 2. Dallas fans made the engine of an old Dodge Viper the perfect place to cook brats.
  • 3 At Yale, men still wear full-length beaver coats to keep out the cold while tailgating at Yale/Harvard games.

  • Get ready for game day in our Tailgate sale on Tuesday, November 10, at noon ET.
