When I walk into the bookstore at the University of Arizona the first thing that catches my eye is the rather large section of clothing. The clothing department takes up a majority of the top floor, but all the space is used very well in showing off our school pride. This photo was taken in the afternoon, so not many students are here at the moment, but during the day this place is very crowded. You sometimes think the bookstore should make the clothing store bigger just because of how crowded it gets. It is definitely the most popular place to shop on campus for arizona attire. The clothing section has everything to offer, T-shirts, sweatpants, tank-tops, sweatshirts, shorts, dresses, socks and even shoes, everything for both men and women. Like I said , many students get their arizona apparel here because they sell the best quality of clothing. I know I would get my shirts and sweaters here for the football games during the season. Along with clothes, I purchased pom-poms, hair clips and spray paint to have a lot of spirit for the games. This little stuff is scattered throughout the clothes to make students buy little non-needed things, which gives the book store more money. Also a huge part of the clothing department is dedicated to athletics, a lot of the students buy their clothes here that they wear to the recreation center and/or sports practices. The clothes are not just geared towards students, there is a section for parents, grandparents and/or alumni to buy some new apparel. Last but not least, the bookstore offers dressing rooms to try the clothing on. If it doesn't fit, an employee will assist you in getting the right size. You really feel like you are in a mall shopping because of the service the bookstore offers. Also the look of the section, as you can see in the photo the bright blue lights that are above the clothing, along with the red tables. The architecture really adds to the bookstore and shows off our colors and pride of being a Wildcat. I think that having a clothing department inside of a bookstore is a great idea. It's easy, fast and affordable.
