The Tiger Sports Shop is a Clemson-based retail retailer focused on Clemson-branded apparel and fan goods, including a wide range of Clemson-related items from clothing to decor and accessories. It describes itself as the largest retailer dedicated to Clemson merchandise for fans in the Clemson area. The business traces its origins to 1974, when soccer coach I. M. Ibrahim opened a small shop downtown with products initially including Adidas shoes; later, after expansion, the store moved to the historic Clemson Theatre in 1984 and grew to include a second location serving fans on their way into Clemson. The store serves Clemson enthusiasts of all ages—men, women, and children—by offering Clemson apparel, tailgating supplies, jewelry, bags, watches, dishware, decals, toys, and other Clemson-branded goods, consolidating many Clemson-related needs in one place. It operates in the retail sector and positions itself as a regional source for licensed Clemson apparel and gifts for fans attending games or supporting the university, rather than as a general sportswear chain. A notable development: in 2017, it was recognized as one of South Carolina's top nine sporting goods stores by BestThingsSC.com.
