Reminder: Purchase Episcopal Spirit Wear from Approved Vendors Only
Lorem ipsum

As the new school year begins, we want to remind our community to purchase Episcopal apparel and spirit wear only from approved vendors. From time to time, unauthorized websites and unofficial vendors may claim to offer “Episcopal gear” for sale. However, only school-approved vendors are authorized to produce and sell apparel featuring Episcopal’s name, logos, or branding.

Purchasing from approved vendors helps ensure that products meet our brand standards and that your personal and payment information remains secure

Episcopal School of Jacksonville’s approved vendors are:

  • ESJ Campus Store (located on the Munnerlyn Campus)
  • Lands’ End
  • Baker’s Sports

Additional approved vendors (such as Crowley Printing, Custom Ink, and others) may be used for specific school group or club apparel with prior approval from Episcopal’s Marketing Communications Office.

If you are ever unsure whether a vendor is authorized, please contact the Marketing Communications Office at info@esj.org before placing an order.
