Gear Geek: The Homage in Columbus, OH



     If you happen to find yourself in Columbus, Ohio, I recommend stopping by a small shop called Homage.  In their own words, "Homage turns back the clock with shout outs to eclectic moments and personalities in sports, music, politics and popular culture."  They do this through a wide selection of t-shirts, hoodies, bottoms, and accessories.  Though located firmly in Buckeye territory in the popular Short North area, Homage has products giving props to many sports, cities and colleges.  I was able to pick up a sweet Baylor University t-shirt for myself and a University of Houston shirt for my brother-in-law.  For other U of H fans, there's a prize PHI SLAMA JAMA shirt still available on sale but in limited sizes.  And for Chicagoans, there's a nice shirt that reads, "CHICAGO AIN'T NO SISSY TOWN."  If you browse their website, product details include fascinating stories behind many of their t-shirts.  FYI, t-shirts are 50% polyester, 25% cotton, and 25% rayon and run a little small.  It's a vintage fit, so you may want to consider ordering a size up if you prefer a looser fit.  Hoodies and raglan shirts felt true to size.  The material of my t-shirts and hoodies feels great!  In fact, the hoodie is the softest I've ever had!  If you do happen to make it to the shop, pick up a complementary Coke with your purchase from their old school bottle machine.  Coke definitely taste better from a glass bottle!  Below are a few goods I picked up from my visit.  Cheers to A FINANCIAL STATEMENT of THE CLASS ROOM for recommending Homage!
