We’re intimately connected to BGSU and it’s our honor to serve the school’s students and their families.

We specialize in apparel for people who live in or simply love the American Midwest, specifically Ohio.

Although we call Northwest Ohio home, we also have special collections for Michigan, the Great Lakes region, and beyond. .

We’ve got an entire Bowling Green collection with unique designs that you won’t find anywhere else. Better yet, we’ve got several Bowling Green grads on our team to design items that perfectly capture the school’s spirit and colors.

If there’s a recent or soon-to-be BGSU grad in your circle, it’s time to level up their school spirit apparel collection. High-quality school-themed apparel is the perfect gift for a happy graduate.

Or, shop for yourself! You’re part of the BGSU family, too.

Let’s take a look at some of the best Bowling Green swag for you and your favorite grad, including:

  • BGSU t-shirts
  • BGSU sweatshirts and hoodies
  • BGSU sweatpants

1 - Bowling Green State University T-Shirts

What do you look for in a t-shirt?

We like ours soft, stylish and fitted.

To get the coziest, best-fitting shirt, you’ve got to use the right materials.

Items like the Vintage Falcon T-shirt (pictured above) are made with the following tri-blend material:

  • Polyester
  • Cotton
  • Rayon

Each component brings advantages to the mix.

Material Percent Used in Tri-Blend Shirts Value Added
Polyester 50 Anti-shrink, anti-wrinkle
Cotton 25 Softness, durability
Rayon 25 Lightness, stretch, breathability

Cotton is the most traditional material for garment design. It’s soft, durable, and breathable. However, cotton actually works best in tandem with other materials.

In a tri-blend shirt, polyester adds anti-shrink and anti-wrinkle properties, providing a comfortable amount of stretchiness without compromising style. Finally, rayon adds a silky smooth feel.

The tri-blend combo of these three materials makes shirts comfy, durable, and stylish—fitted shirts that are perfectly soft, with just the right amount of stretchiness.

Our Bowling Green t-shirts are officially licensed by the university and built to last.

2 - Bowling Green State University Sweatshirts

Ohio offers lots of sweatshirt weather. When it’s time to warm up with long sleeves, the best sweatshirts are super cozy and oh-so-soft. So, we opt for the ultimate softness with 100% cotton and cotton-polyester blends.

”Nobody compliments a crew neck sweater. NOT THIS ONE… My friends now all have the same one!”
— Samantha K., ★★★★★ Verified fancysweetstx Buyer

For the most classy look that a sweatshirt can offer, go with an embroidered design (see above). Or, check out one of these comfy and stylish options:

3 - Bowling Green Falcons Tie-Dye Sweatpants

Who says sweatpants have to be boring? Pass on the plain gray options and go for a brilliant pair of dark blue Bowling Green tie-dye sweatpants. 

”So comfy and cute. I love this sweatshirt and the sweatpants. They’re very cozy and look great!”
— Jamie C., ★★★★★ Verified fancysweetstx Buyer

These pants have every possible design element for hitting that peak comfort level that only sweatpants can provide. They have an elastic waistband with a flat drawcord, ribbed ankle cuffs, and rear and side pockets.

The tie-dye design features multiple shades of blue. It creates a groovy print that perfectly captures the college vibe—ultra casual yet super stylish.

While the tie-dye design earns you some fashion points, the feel of these sweatpants is all about comfort. The unisex, relaxed fit is loose and cozy without being baggy, creating a less-structured silhouette.

To complete the outfit, pair your tie-dye sweatpants with this matching BGSU tie-dye sweatshirt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is fancysweetstx part of Bowling Green State University?

fancysweetstx is a private company. We aren’t owned by a university, but we do hold official licenses to make our own themed apparel for several schools. These include Bowling Green State University and the University of 16153 Genova.

Does fancysweetstx have a retail location on the BGSU campus?

We don’t have a retail location on the Bowling Green State University campus, but we’re nearby. Our two stores are located in 16153 Genova, around 30 minutes from BGSU. The fancysweetstx stores are located here:

”Great store… Bought multiple gifts for my wife from here as we no longer live in the Midwest but she appreciates the celebration.”
— Devin C., ★★★★★ Verified fancysweetstx Buyer

Does fancysweetstx apparel shrink in the wash?

Most of our shirts are made with this tri-blend: polyester, cotton, and rayon. This blend doesn’t typically shrink much, if at all.

We also use a 50/50 cotton and polyester blend for some garments. This blend is also generally shrink-proof.

Additionally, fancysweetstx sweatshirts and sweatpants are pre-shrunk. This means post-purchase shrinkage potential is minimal, but some shrinking may occur if you dry your cotton or fleece garments with high heat. So, we recommend hang-drying cotton and fleece garments or tumble drying them with low heat.

Does fancysweetstx take custom apparel orders?

We offer custom screen printing and embroidery. In fact, a large portion of our business involves custom design and decoration for local schools, businesses, non-profit groups, and special events.

Bowling Green Clothing for New Students

Have you started looking for gift ideas for your Future Falcons? Are you looking for your first official BGSU shirt or sweatshirt as a new student?

College acceptance letters went out months ago and now we're in the middle of decision time. It's a big, important decision for high school seniors across the country. 

If you were one of the lucky ones that have made the decision to attend Bowling Green State University in the fall, congratulations! We're happy to have you in Northwest Ohio!

We think you're just going to love learning, growing, and having fun in the city of Bowling Green for the next four years. We might be a little biased, but hey, we want all of the best people to explore, discover, and love Bowling Green as much as we do. 

Northwest Ohio is a great place to be and you are going to make it better. 

Why is our BG Falcons Apparel Special?

If you're looking for something new to show your Falcon pride, we've got you covered. Not only is our apparel printed and embroidered in Northwest Ohio, but it's designed by Bowling Green grads, as well (our lead designer was VCT major). 

There's something a little bit special about creating and designing shirts for the school you went to and loved for four years. We aren't the official bookstore, but we think we have more passion behind what we do than they do. 

You can shop our Bowling Green State University apparel and clothing on our website and in both of our retail stores.

Located just a short distance from BGSU's campus, we'd love it if you visited one of our retail stores when you make it to campus. We always have BG Falcons apparel in stock. 

I said Go Falcons!

Why Students Love Our Bowling Green State University Apparel

We have always been proud of our Bowling Green State University apparel. 

Vintage BG Logo Shirt

 

As a company with several BGSU alums, we feel we have a connection to Bowling Green students, graduates, and fans that other clothing companies can't match.

What's better than a BGSU Falcon designing shirts for other Falcons?

Over the years, we've had many Bowling Green shirts and designs come and go. Sometimes it's hard to believe we've been making BG apparel for nearly a decade.

Bowling Green State University vintage t-shirt

One thing we always try to do is keep our Bowling Green State University apparel fresh and updated. Like many of our designs, our BG graphics are vintage inspired. For our money, that aren't many logos as great as the old Vintage BGSU Falcon. 

It can be tough to continually come up with new designs each year. Not only is the idea generation difficult, but, to be honest, brown and orange aren't the most popular clothing colors. 

Bowling Green State University Crop Crew Sweatshirt

Last year we released a few new designs on trendy garments that we love. Our Ay Ziggy Zoomba crop top, BG heavyweight crew sweatshirt, and women's vintage Falcon v-neck are items that you're not going to find in the standard Bowling Green bookstores. 

The Bowling Green State University corded crop crew sweatshirt was our most popular. Women absolutely raved about this garment. It's perfect for fall football games and winter hockey games. The garment dyed washed and cropped look make it comfortable and stylish.

If you don't have a corded sweatshirt yet, start with this one!

With students already getting ready to go back to school, we're working hard on new Bowling Green apparel. We have new ideas lined up and ready to go that we know you're going to love. 

Our Most Popular BGSU Shirts and Sweatshirts

While we like to think that all of our Bowling Green shirts and sweatshirts are great, some of them definitely stand out more than others. 

Take a look at any of our BGSU clothing items and three things stand out:

  • Vintage and retro-inspired designs
  • Soft, comfy, trendy styles
  • Quality materials and decoration

Not to mention, all of our clothing is officially licensed from Bowling Green State University. So you know you're getting authentic Falcon gear that you can trust. 

Our apparel is meant to bring back all of the great memories and experiences you have of Bowling Green.

Bowling Green State University Embroidered Crew Sweatshirt

If we've said it once, we've said it twice: there's nothing quite like our embroidered crew sweatshirts.

The pigment dyed material, the comfy fit, and the subtle tone-on-tone embroidery. It's got it all. 

Crew sweatshirts are back in style. When it comes to collegiate crews, this one definitely stands out. It's not your typical bold and in your face look. 

It's just as good to wear to a hockey game on campus as it is to wear back home. 

Ay Ziggy Zoomba Shirt

ay ziggy zoomba shirt

There's nothing more iconic on campus in Bowling Green, Ohio than Ay Ziggy Zoomba. You can't call yourself a true Falcon if you don't know this saying.

The old school look and feel of our Ay Ziggy Zoomba shirt will transport you back in time to the days when campus was completely surrounded and bell bottoms were still in style. 

Like all of our other vintage shirts, we designed and printed this licensed shirt in-house. It's printed on a super soft triblend tee that promises to be the softest shirt you own.

Bowling Green Tie Dye Crew Sweatshirt

If you're looking for a BGSU crew sweatshirt that you can't find at the bookstore, you've come to the right place. 

This tie dye crew is a whole look. And it's a good one at that. 

Because of the nature of the tie dye process, each sweatshirt is slightly unique. This crew has a relaxed, unisex fit for a loose, more relaxed feel. 

Looking to make it a complete set? Add the matching tie dye sweatpants for the full fit!
