Gearing Up for the Super Bowl!

The countdown to the Super Bowl is on, and fans are heading to the 49ers Official Team store in Palo Alto to snap-up gear to support their favorite team.

During lunch hour Tuesday, about a dozen people were in the store at any given time. Most people walked past the display of NFC Champion shirts and headed to the team jerseys. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s number 7 jersey was right inside the front door. It was selected by one fan “for my son. Our family has always been fans.” She declined to give her name.

Over in ladies wear Kevin Belinski was looking for a shirt for his wife, “She’s as big a fan as I am.” Belinski works for Synergistic in the Sacramento area and was in Palo Alto on business. Before leaving home, his wife game him very specific instructions about the shirt she wants. “Three-quarter sleeves, red.” It needs to be different from the 49ers shirts that she already owns.

The adorable pint-sized cheerleader outfits were also popular for kids, grandchildren and nieces.

The 49ers store sells memorabilia, gifts, clothing and more. It’s located in Town & Country Village.
