How To

Each Hometown Proud Apparel item is customizable to include your hometown, your state/province and the GPS coordinates of any location you choose. Get creative! The house you grew up in? The place you met the love of your life? Your favorite beach? Your favorite hiking trail? The rink/gym you lived in? The best pizza place? This can be your own little easter egg!

After you've selected your item, the size (be sure to check our Garment Care page for fitting) and the color of your choice, select the "Personalize Design" button. From there, enter in your Hometown, your State/Province and your GPS coordinates in the corresponding fields. 

*PLEASE NOTE - If you do not wish to include GPS coordinates you must remove the GPS letters from the customize field. Don't say we didn't tell you! We won't accept returns with items with "GPS" written on them! You've been warned!

To find exact GPS coordinates we recommend using Google Maps. Simply search for the address you want to use. And follow these steps:

Desktop - right click on the map point marker which will show you the GPS coordinates. Click on those and it will automatically be copied to your clipboard.

Google Maps App - once you search the address it will show you additional info for that address at the bottom of the screen. Near the bottom of that, it will show the GPS coordinates. Tap those it will automatically be copied to your clipboard.

From our experience, it doesn't work very well on a mobile browser so we recommend using the above methods to find the coordinates.

*PLEASE NOTE - Google Maps will give you a very long set of coordinates numbers. You're welcome to use those but to not shrink the font size too small we recommend cutting them down to 5 digits each.
