Cal Poly Mustang Shop Downtown is a popular store for Cal Poly gear and local products. Located in a recently moved, larger space, it offers a good selection of official Cal Poly clothing, including T-shirts and other merchandise. Customers appreciate the friendly staff and quick checkout process. While some items, like specific sizes or certain designs, may not always be available, visitors often find quality alternatives. The shop not only sells apparel but also features locally made products such as wine, cheese, BBQ sauce, and jam created by Cal Poly students, supporting the local community. Many customers, including alumni and proud parents, enjoy shopping here for Cal Poly gear, often finding better options than on campus. The shop is part of a vibrant downtown area with great shops, restaurants, and a farmer’s market, making it a favorite destination even for those just exploring the town.
Overpriced Cal-Poly merchandise, but if you are sending a kid here you already know that! so get over it, get the cup, sweatshirt, shirt or sticker (or all) for the grandparents and yourself and move on. What do you thought, it would be cheap?

This store used to be fun to shop, kinda like a gift shop but now its just calpoly labeled school stuff, overpriced snacks, and school books.

Super convenient and stocked with everything you could need! If you don’t have time to run on campus, this is a great option! Even picked up some student made barbecue sauce while I was there!
