You will find folding sport chairs in the colors of a rainbow at sporting events from toddler soccer games to youth baseball, youth football and any place an outdoor sporting event at a field without bleachers is having a game. Folding sports chairs can be purchased at drug stores, grocery stores, some convenience stores, Wal-Mart, Kmart, and sporting goods stores. You will even find folding sports chairs for sale at Cabela’s, Bass Pro, Gander Mountain and many other fishing and hunting specialty retailers across the country.
Whether your folding sports chair has your favorite teams logo on it or the name of the sporting goods store where you bought it you can be sure it was made somewhere in China. There are a few companies that provide private label service for major retailers and many that provide licensed logo products from the major sports leagues (NFL, MLB, NBA, and NHL) and collegiate licensed products from the NCAA.
Most folding sports chairs are sold at mass retail in a few main models. The opening price point chair comes without arms and retails for less than ten dollars. The next model has arms but no cup holders and is around ten dollars. Add cup holders and the price goes up to about fifteen dollars, and if you add an attached footstool and/or canopy for shade the price shoots up to almost fifty dollars.
There are a number of higher end folding sports chairs that have a heavier fabric, have better frames that hold more weight or made by the “better” brands like Columbia and Eddie Bauer that command more money for the cache of the logo. If you are looking for a chair with your favorite sports team you need to look in licensed sports shops online especially if you do not live in the area where your team is from. Most sorting goods retailers will stock some folding sports chairs in the logos of the local teams and a few of the top selling NFL teams like the Steelers, Cowboys and Packers.
