Whether you are into college football, the NFL, or English Football (better known as soccer here in the states), you will have to agree that having just the right team gear is essential to any game day party. And, with football season kicking off with a bang, it’s time to get your gear on. Here are some handy gameday items to get you off to a great start.
Attire
Sports fan attire is no longer simply your favorite player’s jersey or a team t-shirt. It is all encompassing from jewelry to clothing providing every fan with more options and style ideas than ever. Check out these gameday fashion ideas and see for yourself.

- Men’s Personalized Stainless-Steel Team Rings – The Bradford Exchange offers a line of NFL team rings that can be engraved with your own personal phrase or name inside the band. This is a great way to show your team spirit while looking like you might actually be part of the team.
- Imprinted Tungsten Wedding Bands – Yes you read that correctly, wedding bands. TungstenWorld.com offers tungsten wedding bands that are imprinted with your favorite team’s logo and can also be laser engraved for more personalization.
- Jerseys in an Assortment of Styles, Fabrics, and Designs – Jerseys are the sports fan’s classic go-to item for gameday parties, tailgating and simply watching the game at home on the sofa. In 2018 you will find the traditional jerseys as well as a variety of hooded sweatshirt styled team wear, jerseys made from mesh, polyester, and cotton blends to meet your specific style and flair.


- Hats and Helmets – For those who prefer a more low-key approach to rooting for their favorite team, hats are a great option. Not only will you be sporting your team colors, but you will also be kept protected from the sun as you watch your team score that winning touchdown. Or take it the whole 9 yards and get an NFL helmet for that in the game feel.
- Socks, Gloves, and Accessories – Don’t save supporting your team for game day. Become the ultimate fan and cheer them on all day every day with team socks, winter gloves, and scarves.

- NFL Team Jenga Style Stacking Game – That’s right, now you can play one of your favorite party games with a bit of team spirit added to the mix. This stacking game has your team’s name and logo imprinted on each piece, so everyone will know who you are rooting for.
- Tables and Table Top Covers – Both functional and decorative, these tables are not your mom’s folding table. They are adorned with your favorite team’s colors and logo letting everyone feel your team spirit.
