Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Wear a reminder of McRae's, a Southern department store whose story began with a Jackson dry goods shop in 1902. Founded by Samuel P. McRae, the family business grew steadily, expanded into Florida in 1974, and later added Alabama stores. McRae's remained a recognizable name through corporate changes and became part of a wider retail transition in 2006. This Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt connects everyday comfort with the history and memories of a regional shopping institution.
Samuel P. McRae founded McRae's in Jackson, Mississippi, in 1902 as a dry goods store. The business remained family-owned for decades and grew from $1 million in sales in 1955 to $10 million in 1970. Its first location beyond Mississippi opened in 1974 at University Mall in Pensacola, Florida, later known as University Town Plaza. In 1987, McRae's acquired 13 Alabama stores from Pizitz. The chain, known for strengths in home furnishings, men's apparel, and cosmetics, was acquired by Tennessee-based Proffitt's in 1993. McRae's retained its name and operated as a separate subsidiary. Proffitt's merged with Saks Holdings in 1998, and the combined company became Saks Incorporated; McRae's joined its Southern Department Store Group. Charlotte-based Belk bought Proffitt's and McRae's in a deal completed in July 2005. On March 8, 2006, most McRae's stores became Belk stores, with three excluded. Saks retained the Tuscaloosa and Gadsden locations for conversion to its Parisian chain; both later became part of the Parisian locations sold to Belk. The Mall of Louisiana location in Baton Rouge became a Dillard's store.
