Holiday Gift Guide for Sports, Music, and Shopping Lovers
Holiday season is upon us again! As we prepare to spend time with our loved ones, it’s impossible to not reminisce on the happy memories of years, and holidays, past. For many of us, the holidays are a time for family and friends, a time for good food, abundant laughter, and gifts you’re just as excited to give as you are to receive. But, what if we could combine our happy memories with epic gifts for everyone? That’s kind of what we’re all about here at Local Vyntage - bringing back happy memories all year around, but especially during the holidays. Without further ado, here’s this year’s Local Vyntage Gift Guide!
For Sports Fans
For many of us, growing up meant going to sporting events with our parents, memorizing rosters, and wearing jerseys that were perhaps a little too big. Maybe you’ve continued the tradition with your own kids. Whatever the case, there’s nothing like your first real sports obsessions. And win or lose, there’s no greater disappointment than when that team or their stadium/arena changes names, moves, or goes away all together. While we can’t bring these back (no matter how many years it’s been on our list to Santa) we can offer you some soft tees and comfy hoodies for everything from your favorite teams, stadiums and arenas, sporting events, sports channels, and even an old team song!

For Music Lovers
The soundtracks of our lives are often tied closely to our favorite memories. Maybe you met our spouse at a concert, or you and your best friend stood in line for hours at a record store to get concert tickets. Maybe you’d travel many miles for a new album release or to get to concert venues to see your favorite artists. With all the instant streaming of music we have today, the ritual of music buying, listening, and attending has changed. But we’re still holding onto the good ol’ days with these classic tees and hoodies!

For Shoppers
Shopping at the malls and big department stores was always an adventure, especially during the holidays! Especially if you had the benefit of being a kid in the 70s, 80s, or 90s. All of the sparkle and less of the stress! Thinking back on days spent with your mom at catalog showrooms or departments looking at the latest or greatest can fill us with such nostalgia. And let’s not forget visiting with Santa! Maybe it was the quality time, the new stuff, the great deals, or just the stores themselves, but for some reason we remember shopping as so much more fun than it is today. And while these stores have gone away, you can still shop for them with us!
