NOVUS, a fast-growing apparel brand specializing in high-quality, purpose-driven, custom apparel for athletes, teams, and professionals nationwide, announced today that alongside Joe Girard III they are rolling out a new line of Clemson gear – just in time for the nail-biting ACC basketball schedule. Building on the successes of their previous collections, the dynamic duo aims to make a splash in tiger town, offering fans a variety of sportswear and lifestyle apparel. The collection is extremely limited-edition, and is only available through Thursday, March 28th at midnight.
Born and raised in Glens Falls, Girard quickly emerged as a basketball prodigy, making his varsity debut as an eighth grader and ultimately becoming the state’s all-time leading scorer. His talent and passion for the game led him to Syracuse University, where he made an immediate impact as the starting point guard. During his senior year, Girard was recognized as one of the top shooting guards in college basketball, setting the stage for his continued success at Clemson University, where he was recently named ACC player of the week.
Yet, it’s not just his on-court success that sets Girard apart—it’s his commitment to excellence, his unwavering dedication to his craft, and his belief in pushing forward, no matter the obstacles, that truly define him as a player and as a person. It’s these qualities that attracted Girard to NOVUS, a brand that embodies passion, conviction, and perseverance. Through their partnership, Girard and NOVUS have teamed up to make a difference both on and off the court, inspiring young athletes, designing custom apparel, and bringing unique styles to fans of Syracuse and Clemson alike.
“I have a big passion for the love of the game. That’s what I was looking for when I was looking for a brand to partner with—the passion,” said Clemson star Joe Girard III. “Having a group of people that have the same vision as me. They have the same passion and love that I do for what they’re doing.”
“JG3 has opened doors for NOVUS on both the Syracuse and Clemson campuses, helping us secure licensing deals respectively, and countless relationships that we will cherish,” added Garrett Bernardo, Co-Founder and CEO of NOVUS Clothing Company. “We know this is only the beginning for Joe and we are grateful to have him be such a special part of the NOVUS journey.”
Headquartered in Albany, NOVUS’ mantra, “Claim Your Crown,” is rooted in living a life of passion, conviction and perseverance. For more information on NOVUS Clothing Company please visit www.novusclothingcompany.com.
