I totally believe that....

Many BYU fans are cheapskates.... Give them a choice between a Nike shirt for $24.95 and a cheap knock-off at Walmart for $15 and they will go with Walmart most of the time. I like going to the Bookstore because there is way more to choose from. Not inexpensive, but some cool stuff.

That's because they also sell byu gear at Walmart & Maceys. Sad but true.

Don't they sell all other colleges' gear at Walmart and other such stores?

Yes but we tend to be more frugal whether admit it or not.

I blame the Bookstore (or whatever they're called now).

All I ask is for is women's cut nice polo shirts. Is that really so hard?

From Nike? Yes, it can be hard. The BYU Store is at the mercy of what Nike is willing to produce.

My point is that BYU limits color options in spite of demand.

How have we been winning gear counts without selling our gear well?

No gastric acids destroying our gear in post-drunken stupor, or knife wounds...

We wear it till it's threadbare. "Vintage". Yea!

I still rock my Fully Invested shirt. There hasn't been a better football shirt.

Have more than 10% of the gear even look "above average" and maybe we'll buy it
