Show your appreciation for Strawbridge's and the Philadelphia shopping culture it helped shape. Founded in 1868 by Justus Clayton Strawbridge and Isaac Hallowell Clothier, the retailer grew from a Center City dry goods store into a regional institution with suburban branches throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. Its landmark flagship opened in 1931, and its name remained familiar to shoppers through the 2006 transition to Macy's. This polo shirt connects everyday wear with a memorable local story, from the grand downtown store to the holiday Dickens Village tradition.
Strawbridge & Clothier began as a Philadelphia dry goods store in 1868, founded by Quakers Justus Clayton Strawbridge and Isaac Hallowell Clothier. Its first store stood at Market and 8th Streets in Center City. A grand 13-story Beaux-Arts flagship, begun in 1928 and opened in 1931, later anchored The Gallery at Market East. The retailer began opening suburban branches in 1930, expanding across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware; its sales exceeded a billion dollars at its 1980s peak. After remaining independent into the 1990s, the company was acquired by May Department Stores in 1996 and operated as Strawbridge's. May was acquired by Federated Department Stores on August 30, 2005. In 2006, Macy's East assumed control of the remaining stores, the Center City flagship closed on May 23, and the Strawbridge's nameplate was phased out on September 9 in favor of Macy's. The flagship building was later repurposed for retail, offices, and other uses.
