Rural lifestyle retailer will be the exclusive
home for select Field & Stream outdoor and hunting products
Tractor Supply Company (NASDAQ: TSCO), the largest rural
lifestyle retailer in the United States, announced today a
multi-year, strategic licensing partnership with Field &
Stream, the most-trusted voice of the outdoors. Beginning in June,
Tractor Supply customers can shop a variety of hunting and outdoor
products created in collaboration with Field & Stream at stores
nationwide and online. An expanded assortment of products is
planned for the fall, with an exclusive line of apparel launching
in 2026.
“For generations, Field & Stream and Tractor Supply have
been pillars of the outdoor community. Field & Stream has
inspired millions to explore and cherish the outdoors, while
Tractor Supply has equipped them with the tools and products to
make those adventures possible,” said Seth Estep, chief
merchandising officer at Tractor Supply. “Our shared communities,
values, histories and interests make for a natural and seamless
partnership. This June, we launch the first Field & Stream
products as part of our annual Deer Event, which kicks off hunting
season with special in-store programing and promotions. Over time,
Field & Stream products will include gun safes, hunting blinds,
deer feeders, game cameras and more. The larger collection begins
arriving in store and online this November. We can't wait to see
the incredible experiences this partnership will bring to our
customers.”
Field & Stream’s origins date back to 1871 when an outerwear
manufacturer, Gordon & Furguson, opened their doors in St.
Paul, Minnesota and later launched a clothing line under the brand
“Field & Stream”. A few years later, Charles Haddock founded a
large-format periodical that covered hunting, fishing, and
conservation and called it “Field and Stream”. The next generation
of the Field & Stream magazine, born in a duck blind, came to
life in 1895, and has engaged sportsmen and conservationists ever
since. After years of publishing captivating stories in print, the
brand transitioned into a digital destination in 2020. Entertainers
Eric Church and Morgan Wallen, along with a group of experienced
brand builders, acquired and relaunched Field & Stream in 2024,
unifying this legacy brand for the first time in its history. The
Field & Stream collection at Tractor Supply is the brand’s
first brick-and-mortar retail collaboration since the relaunch.
“I can’t think of two better brands that go hand-in-hand than
Field & Stream and Tractor Supply,” said Eric Church, partner
in Field & Stream. "The very same people who shop at Tractor
Supply are the ones who turn to Field & Stream magazine and its
stories to open their imagination to the possibilities of a world
without boundaries. I know, because I’m one of them. Together,
there’s no limit to what we can achieve."
“We are proud to align Field & Stream alongside Tractor
Supply,” said Doug McNamee Field & Stream president. “With over
235 years of combined history, our companies are united by a shared
commitment to community, tradition, and a deep respect for the land
we work and play on. Together, we believe the stories of Field
& Stream, combined with the retail excellence of Tractor
Supply, will redefine the outdoor experience for our customers,
creating unforgettable adventures and setting a new standard for
collaboration.”
In addition to a shared passion for the outdoors, Tractor Supply
and Field & Stream are both deeply committed to conservation.
The Tractor Supply Company Foundation ranks land and nature
conservation as one of the retailer’s four priority areas of
giving, while part of Field & Stream’s stated purpose is to
lead the charge to conserve and fight for wildlife and wild places.
This partnership presents an opportunity to increase awareness and
impact in these areas.
