New Heights went from a podcast to a full-blown community banner for a reason. The Kelce brothers built a fandom that shows up for game days, long workouts, and everything in between. For 2026, that community is taking over college campuses, and the merch strategy has shifted from heavy jerseys to lighter, versatile accessories.
In my experience as an e-commerce product specialist, backpacks get replaced every semester, but a good beanie or trucker hat sticks around for years. Accessories are also the easiest way to rep a fandom without making it your whole personality. They layer over anything you already own, and they pack down to nothing.
Jerseys run $100 to $200 and only work on specific occasions. A $28 trucker hat or $24 beanie works for a 9 AM class, a library session, or a group hike. You can mix it into your rotation without planning an outfit around it.
Fan merchandise has moved past loud prints. The current crop of New Heights-inspired gear uses tonal embroidery, minimal logos, and neutral palettes. That makes it easier to style with everyday pieces like denim jackets, sweats, and plain tees.
Every product below is available through the New Heights Merch Store and ships via print-on-demand. Standard US shipping runs 5-10 business days, so order before your welcome week starts.
This is the best multi-purpose hat in the collection. The front panels hold their shape, the mesh back keeps your head cool between classes, and the snapback adjusts to most head sizes. The embroidered '92%ers' logo is clean enough for a presentation but still says exactly what you're about.
For cold classrooms and early tailgates, this cuffed knit beanie shows off Jason's favorite nickname without screaming. The acrylic blend is thick enough for November games but not so heavy that it itches. Toss it in your bag and pull it out when the library AC gets aggressive.
This is the heavyweight piece that pulls double duty. The 12 oz fleece feels like a weighted blanket, and the chest embroidery is clean enough for a serious study session. It runs true to size, but I'd size up if you want a roomier fit. It's the best value hoodie-sweatshirt hybrid for the 2026 school year.
Two pins total: the 'Killa' pin and a second 'Teddy Sandpaper' pin for fans who know. The rubber backing keeps them locked to a backpack strap or a denim jacket. At $15, this is the cheapest way to test the waters if you're not ready to commit to a hoodie.
This drawstring bag fits a laptop up to 14 inches, meaning it works for both the gym and a light class load. The printed side logo uses a low-heat transfer that bonds to the fabric, so it resists cracking in the wash. It's the utility pick for dorms and rec centers.
Double-wall insulation keeps drinks cold for 12 hours, which you'll appreciate during back-to-back lectures. The powder-coated finish resists scratches, and the logo stays sharp after dishwasher cycles. It's the most practical accessory on this list.
The best choice if you want maximum flexibility: the trucker hat. It's the most natural starter piece and the one I'd grab on a random Tuesday.
The key to styling fan gear on campus is to treat it like a neutral, not a costume. Pair the trucker hat with a plain white tee and a flannel, or throw the crewneck over a button-down for a look that works from a presentation to a tailgate.
In my experience, the beanie reads best with a puffer jacket or a denim jacket, because the knit adds texture without competing with a print. Use the gym sack when you need a hand free for a coffee. Keep the tumbler in the side pocket of your backpack so it's always within reach.
On game days, double up. Wear the crewneck with the trucker hat, and clip the pins to your backpack. On study days, keep it to one piece. A single accessory signals you're a fan without distracting you or the people around you.
Because you're moving between lecture halls, the best pieces are ones that pack small. The beanie and pins weigh nothing, the hat survives being tossed in a bag, and the crewneck doubles as a dorm-room pillow when you crash on a friend's couch.
Wash the crewneck inside out in cold water with like colors, then dry it flat to stop the embroidery from curling. The 12 oz fleece handles normal wear, but heat is what damages the print and stitching. Skip the dryer entirely if you want it to last past December.
Spot-clean the trucker hat with a damp sponge and a mild soap. Never run it through a dishwasher or washing machine, because the cardboard backing in the brim warps and permanently creases. For the beanie, hand wash in cool water and reshape it while it's damp.
If the brim of a trucker hat starts to crack or the fleece of a crewneck pills, it's time for a refresh. With normal care, expect a crewneck to last two or three seasons and a hat to last even longer.
Available in sizes S through XXL. The fit runs true to size, but go up one size if you prefer a relaxed, oversized fit. Check the size chart on the product page before checkout, because the 12 oz fleece has less stretch than thinner materials.
The 92%ers trucker hat uses an adjustable snapback that fits most head sizes, roughly from 7 to 7 3/4. The mesh back gives a little flexibility, but if you need a wider fit, the beanies and high-crown styles are more forgiving.
These are fan-inspired, community-driven designs, not official merchandise. They are created to celebrate the show's culture and the 92%ers. We don't claim to have the podcast's official branding, but every piece is built to hold up to daily campus wear.
Standard shipping to the US takes 5-10 business days, and international shipping is available to select countries. Orders are printed on demand, which is why you should order at least two weeks before you need the gear. You'll get a tracking number after your order enters production.
Turn it inside out and hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent. Roll it in a towel to remove extra water, then reshape it while it's damp and lay it flat to dry. Never toss it in a dryer, because high heat shrinks acrylic and pulls embroidery threads.
