On a similar, star-spangled sportswear, tip is National Athletic Goods. Inspired by their massive collection of vintage 40’s and 50’s athletic wear, their sweatshirts and t-shirts are super-classic staples that are just as good on the track and field as they are in the Dog and Duck. The same bunch also operate under the name Homespun, producing uplifting remakes of depression-era undershirts. It’s also worth mentioning that National Athletic Goods and Homespun are brought to us by the good folks at Inventory, which certainly says a bit about the quality of this stuff.
