Grand Opening of Homefield
Homefield, the premium collegiate apparel brand known for its vintage-inspired designs and officially licensed merchandise from more than 200 colleges and universities, announces the grand opening of Homefield Connecticut, its new permanent brick-and-mortar retail location serving University of Connecticut fans, students, alumni, and the greater Storrs community.
Homefield Connecticut brings the brand’s distinctive take on UConn and Huskies apparel to the heart of Downtown Storrs, offering fans a dedicated destination for premium gear inspired by UConn's history, traditions, and culture. “We’re thrilled to officially become part of the Storrs community,” said Connor Hitchcock, Homefield co-founder and CEO. “Homefield was built around the idea that college apparel can be more than a logo on a shirt, it can capture the memories, traditions, and identity that make each school special. We’re excited to continue to bring that experience to UConn students, alumni, and fans year-round only steps from campus."
