Thought I'd start a thread and ask the question - where can I find Grey Cup championship merchandise? I suspect the store at Rogers Centre, but I can't get to downtown Toronto during the day, and I'm not sure it's open normal evening shopping hours. Ideally, I'd like a sweatshirt (not a hoody), but even a t-shirt would be nice. Ordering online is risky on sizing, which is often very odd/small these days.

Also, I've been looking for the Grey Cup 100 tasseled toque for a week with no luck. I wasn't at the game (season ticket holder but with some health issues right now, the large crowds weren't appealing), I tried going to the merchandise tents downtown three times but they were closed each time. The CFL shop online, surprisingly, never had any.

Thanks - if I find any merchandise, I'll let everyone know!

I think the toque you are referring to were given out to the volunteers.

I should add - the Argos tweeted a picture showing t-shirt and hat from the post-game are at Real Sports. And cflshop.ca has added some new merchandise recently. Nothing bigger than 2xl (aka a Large from five years ago) so far though.

The grey toque? I've seen a lot of people, including players' family, wearing them, so I'm thinking they'd be for sale somewhere. These days, the Reebok shirts fit so tight, I'm more in the market for toques!

Believe it or not, the best selection I've found in the first two days is in Hamilton/Stoney Creek. Superstar Sports by the food court at Eastgate Mall (Centennial exit off QEW) has two different Argos championship t-shirts as well as hats. Shirts come up to XXL. In fact....it's the only place I've found anything at all so far!

Myself, T-Bone, Scotty and amchow78 each bought a championship hat at Lids at the Eaton Centre earlier this evening. They had a reasonable selection of other CFL hats as well, but who knows how long that'll remain in place.

They'll have stuff for a whole year. I got a hat and shirt and replica cup with the argo logo from cfl.ca and that framed thingy from frameworks we got with our grey cup tickets.

Which SportChek? I checked a couple in the west GTA, not one item of CFL gear at those two, unfortunately. But I find each SportChek very different in that regard!

They have these (http://www.argofans.com/showthread.php?1232-Grey-Cup-100-Shop&p=22694&viewfull=1#post22694) at the Grey Cup 100 Shop in Sears at the Eatons Centre.

I hadn't seen that other thread - didn't know there was a store at the Eaton Centre Sears. I don't get down there often but I'll have to stop by and see what's left! Really wish they had 3XL shirts considering my XL shirts from ten years ago (which I still wear and still fit) are several inches bigger than most 2XL I've got recently!

I'd like the Argos toque that the players were wearing this fall. If anyone sees that one available somewhere let me know.

the Canadian tire at lakeshore and leslie had Argos stuff, and it even had a Grey Cup Championship t-shirt for only 15.99. It also had large argo flags 3 by 5 also for 15.99.

However the shirts that were available that I posted in the other thread (http://www.argofans.com/showthread.php?1232-Grey-Cup-100-Shop&p=22870&viewfull=1#post22870) are now available at the Jays Shop at Rogers Centre.

Love and wear your championship gear with pride. It's great wearing my t shirt in town. Nice to wear the the stuff in Lions country. Perhaps I should wear it tonight to my wife's work Christmas party at the brew pub.

The cfl forum site has run out of the mini Grey Cup helmet that I am looking for.
Has anyone seen one in the GTA anywhere?

I was at National Sports on Dorval Drive in Oakville on December 30th and they had GC champions shirts but not any hats. The short sleeve t-shirts were $23.99 and the long sleeve were $27.99 (this is the only place I've seen long sleeve t-shirts) and most items are 20% off right now. They were not the Reebok shirts but ones by CGW which are listed on www.cflshop.ca (http://www.cflshop.ca) for $24.99. They also have other Argo t-shirts, hats, and toques (again, not Reebok) for sale as well. I assume that other National Sports locations in the GTA would sell them as well.

I can't stand any of the New Era rapper hats. It's like putting a bucket on your head. You'd think they'd come out with a few different styles as there's more to life than hip hop. Cupstuff has gear and he's an Argo fan. My wife ordered some stuff for Christmas for me. He even paid huge postage to get it here. I like to put my support in the right places.

I just ordered some gear from Cupstuff including an Argo GC champions hat that I've never seen anywhere else. It's an adjustable hat and I think I got the last one since their website now shows it being out of stock. I didn't like the Reebok hat since its a flexfit hat.

I've been very happy with Cupstuff.

Those hats are designed specifically for the sport of baseball and many in the hip hop culture adopted them.

The new era hats look really sharp when people wear them properly, ie. with a curved brim. The flat brimmed oversized look is what makes them look stupid.
