Here we go again! The time is near when students, new and old, are heading forth to their colleges and universities, and the entire nation is gearing up for another college sports season. There are many ways for students, alumni, and hometown fans alike to show their loyalty, and stay warm as they cheer on their teams in dropping temperatures. While football moves indoors in colder climes for the pros, college athletes, and their fans, are likely to be playing and cheering outdoors, come rain, wind, or shine.

The true fan has a well-stocked closet for the fall season. It's important to remember that autumn usually means unpredictable weather, and the key to dressing is layering up. And any truly loyal fan will want each layer to reflect his or her loyalty. After spending the summer in t-shirts, look now for long sleeve t-shirts to make the transition to cooler weather. As fall goes on, your fan will want to don a sweatshirt or windbreaker; with lined jackets for even colder days. Favorite team and college logos will be omnipresent, as expected. For headgear, baseball caps and floppy hats that kept the sun off your face and neck will have to give way to knit caps. There will also be matching gloves, mittens, and scarves, all emblazoned with logos and the school colors.

Dropping your kid off at college to start the year? Include some college fan gear to your decorating list for the dorm room. Banners and posters work great for covering up bare, white walls, while toothbrushes and soap boxes will give your student tender feelings for alma mater as he heads to the showers. College jerseys will always be a great hit, and If he or she is playing intramural sports, replica jerseys like the ones worn by the varsity teams will draw attention on the field or court. Workout gear like t-shirts, athletic shorts, and even socks will round out the gym wardrobe. How about Parent Weekend? Here is one time it's fine to dress up like your kids. A lot of colleges and universities also have special 'parent-wear' available if you want.

College fan gear for almost all colleges is readily available not only at the nearest campus bookstore, but also in several department stores. You can even find them on the Internet, which is filled with reputable shops selling authentic college jerseys, fan gear, and college memorabilia.
