Celebrate a familiar Florida name with this Burdines youth hoodie and sweatshirt. The company grew from a Miami store opened in 1898 into a department store chain that served communities throughout Florida. Its “The Florida Store” identity and subtropical store atmosphere remain part of the memories people associate with shopping across the state. This piece connects young fans with a chapter of regional retail history and suits collectors and families who appreciate the stories behind longtime Florida brands.
Burdines began in Florida in 1898, when William M. Burdine opened a Miami store with his son, John, after an earlier dry-goods venture in Bartow. First known as W.M. Burdine & Son, it grew from a small clothing shop into a department store chain serving Florida exclusively. Its Miami flagship and headquarters anchored a business that became known as “The Florida Store,” with palm trees and subtropical colors in its stores. Expansion included a Miami Beach branch during the 1920s and further Florida locations over subsequent decades. The chain began international mail order service to Latin America in the late 1940s. Federated Department Stores acquired Burdines in 1956, supporting later expansion north and west across Florida. In 1991, Burdines absorbed many Florida stores from the Maas Brothers/Jordan Marsh division following Federated’s merger with Allied Stores and bankruptcy reorganization. The brand became Burdines–Macy’s in 2004 and was fully converted to Macy’s in 2005. The former Miami flagship continued as a Macy’s until March 2018; the building later reopened for retail use in 2020.
