ABOUT liddle's sports apparel
Serving the midwest with Custom Apparel & Team Gear for Generations
WHO WE ARE
Our story began in 1968, when Normal Liddle opened a small fishing and hunting store to serve the local Kansas City community. What started as a specialty outdoor shop quickly grew alongside the needs of the area. As schools, leagues, and organizations began looking for reliable sources for uniforms and apparel, the business evolved—shifting its focus toward sports apparel and custom-made gear. Over the decades, that evolution turned into a passion for outfitting teams and organizations of all kinds.
Today, we proudly specialize in custom sports uniforms and apparel for schools, leagues, businesses, corporations, and individuals throughout Lee’s Summit and beyond. Our reach extends outside of Missouri as well, supporting teams, organizations, and businesses throughout the Midwest. While our services and technology have grown, our values have remained the same. We believe in exceeding expectations, delivering quality work, offering fair pricing, and building long-term relationships based on trust and reliability. Every project—large or small—gets the same level of care, attention to detail, and commitment to doing it right.
