With the holiday season approaching, Oxford shoppers looking for the perfect gift have plenty of options beyond the click of an online shopping cart. From game-day apparel and clothing to local restaurants and sweet treats, Oxford’s locally owned businesses offer gifts that are uniquely connected to the community. For shoppers looking to show their Ole Miss spirit, Game Day Apparel offers clothing and merchandise designed around the memories made in Oxford. Evyn, a University of Mississippi student who has worked at the store since her freshman year, said the merchandise goes beyond simply showing school spirit. “I think what makes us definitely different is a lot of our pieces are tied to memories,” Evyn said. “We have so many game day shirts that are specific to the game.” A shirt commemorating a particular Ole Miss game can create a connection between people who attended, she said.
