Loper fans now have access to a new online store as part of the University of Nebraska at Kearney’s partnership with Advanced-Online.

The official online store, LopersGear.com, launched last week and provides alumni, supporters, students and fans access to a variety of UNK Lopers clothing, accessories and memorabilia.

“Since arriving at UNK, many of our alumni and supporters have said they wanted more access to Loper gear to show their school pride. We are very excited to announce the LopersGear.com website in collaboration with Advanced-Online,” said Director of Athletics Paul Plinske.

“This is a first-class operation that promises to deliver a multitude of state-of-the-art goods that our fans can be proud of. Not only will our customers be very pleased with what’s available, but they will love the customer service.”

LopersGear.com offers UNK fans instant access to a vast assortment of apparel, including Under Armour gear. Fans are able to choose from a variety of Under Armour t-shirts, polo shirts and sweatshirts, as well as an offering of UNK team-specific apparel.

“The University of Nebraska at Kearney will have tees, sweats, bags, hats, mugs and hundreds of other UNK branded merchandise for sale through an online store created by Advanced-Online,” said College Program Manager Jonathan Michael of Advanced-Online.

LopersGear.com will offer monthly sales and specials for alumni and fans.

Proceeds from the online store will go directly to support UNK’s 17 varsity sport programs and student-athletes.

“We encourage our fans to take advantage of this great opportunity to buy Loper gear,” Plinske said.

Michael added, “Advanced-Online is ready and thrilled to provide the University of Nebraska at Kearney a successful online store like they have done for over 140 other colleges.”

Advanced-Online is an online retailer of collegiate licensed merchandise based out of Coppell, Texas, primarily servicing mid-major NCAA Division I institutions and Division II and III colleges.
