Why supporters pick the Northwestern Wildcats fan version
The Northwestern Wildcats fan version is the supporter-facing cut: the same colours and crest as the on-field design, with a softer fabric, a more forgiving fit and a much friendlier price.
Made to be handed down
For Northwestern Wildcats supporters, between growth spurts, washing and playground use, a kids' shirt has a hard life.
September to January
A Northwestern Wildcats football season runs from late-summer heat to a bowl game in the cold.
How the price difference is earned
- The gap is fabric and finishing, not the design.
- Higher tiers use a denser knit and sew the trim rather than bond it.
- This one keeps the Northwestern Wildcats look and spends the saving on the price.
Fit, cut and build
This one is fan version. If you have worn a match shirt and found it tight across the chest, this is the cut that fixes it.
Between two sizes for young fans, ask what you will wear underneath - that is the only question that matters.
