"Princeton" paraphernalia

<p>Princeton students and alums-- my son is an incoming freshman and I'd love to get him some Princeton T-shirts, polo shirts, and Pton stuff to decorate his room. The P.U. store seems a bit pricey, so I was hoping you can help me find some other websites, or stores to buy gear. We live in NC, so I'm hoping I can order on-line or shop when we drop him off in September. Our local Bed, Bath and Beyond carries tons of stuff for Carolina, NC State, and Duke--does the Princeton BB&B carry Pton stuff? Any advice would be appreciated!</p>

<p>there are many stores in the princeton area that sell unofficial princeton gear, but none of them have websites...to my knowledge the bb and b in the pton area does not sell the gear. If you want my opinion, the u-stores prices are quite fair, especially when your son purchases the lifetime membership (which will come in handy in the future)- and at least this money goes directly back into the community in which your son will live for 4 years and be in touch with for the rest of his life.</p>

<p>I've seen <a href="http://www.landauprinceton.com/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.landauprinceton.com/&lt;/a> tossed around as a cheaper alternative.</p>

<p>When I was visiting on an overnight a few months ago, I was really excited about buying stuff too, but the freshmen I stayed with advised me to only buy 1 shirt and 1 sweatshirt for now since once school starts, free Princeton wear is given out. A lot.</p>

<p>Your absolute best bet is to go with what quirkily suggested. Landau is a great place to buy Princeton gear, and easily the cheapest you'll find around (I didn't even realize they were online, which is perfect for you). </p>

<p>All of my Princeton stuff is either from here (a t-shirt, hat, and sweatshirt) or I got for free from the department (two Princeton engineering t-shirts, one Princeton graduate school shirt). I did buy a polo from the PU store.</p>

<p>Check out <a href="http://ivysport.com/category-category_id/115%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://ivysport.com/category-category_id/115&lt;/a> for more stuff.</p>

<p>Edit: Please never purchase this: <a href="http://www.ivysport.com/product-product_id/106/category_id/151%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.ivysport.com/product-product_id/106/category_id/151&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I've thankfully never seen anyone wearing this, but it's literally one of the most arrogant t-shirts I've ever seen. I'd be embarrassed for the whole student body if I spot someone in it.</p>

<p>I’m surprised no one has made a Princeton because not everyone can get into University of phonix online shirt. Ive seen yale students with them Its refreshing to see Princeton students are not so pompous (another reason I hope to get in next year). Princeton colors look quite nice actually.</p>

<p>Actually, despite my earlier comment, that's sort of funny...</p>

<p>I know MIT has shirts that say something like "MIT: We're Not that Smart, You're Just that Dumb."</p>

<p>^^^^^HAHAHA that's funny...</p>

<p>Well, I just ordered some stuff from the PU store - i wish I had known about the cheaper alternative. Oh well...</p>

<p>wow that MIT shirt is a little harsh huh :)
I still like the one that says "MIT: because not everyone can get into Caltech" ;)</p>
