About Us

 

A Little Background
 
 
Future Tailgater's founding company, Dolly Hosiery Mills (DHM) was established in 1939 in Valdese, North Carolina.  For over 40 years DHM operated as a hosiery mill that knit, dyed and finished high quality baby socks and booties. In the mid-1980's DHM expanded into baby bibs and caps and began offering Collegiate Licensed baby clothing under the Future Tailgater trademark.
 
Gallo Enterprises Inc., a family-owned company located in North Carolina, took over the ownership of Future Tailgater in 2013. We are proud to continue offering high quality licensed collegiate baby and toddler clothing and accessories. 
 
We also offer an expanding line of non-licensed sports themed apparel for children and adults. We are a fun business and all of our products are "Made to Play!"
 
 
Our Mission
 
Consider our customer first in everything we do.
  
 
Why Purchase Stuff From Us?
 
 

We don't make anything that we wouldn't wear ourselves

We are very particular about quality and all products are made to our specifications. Our socks, booties and knit caps are made in North Carolina. Our apparel items are manufactured for us by factories that have high standards for labor practices and worker education. We are active members of the Fair Labor Association (FLA).

 

We use Embroidered Appliques and Water Based Screen Print


Embroidered appliques are superior to regular embroidery on baby clothes since the applique does not leave a scratchy surface next to the baby's skin. We apply each embroidered applique using an industrial heat seal process that permanently affixes the logo to our clothing.

When screen printing is applied to our apparel products, we use water-based ink because it is safe & your safety is of utmost importance.

  

Free Shipping on All Orders


We don't like paying shipping fees for items we buy online and have a feeling that you don't either :)

So, for a limited time,  we're offering Free Shipping on All orders. We ship orders within 1 business day via USPS, your order will usually reach you in 3-5 business days.  If you need it quicker please select the expedited shipping option at checkout (additional fees apply).
