ARCHIVE COLLECTION
ROOTED IN THE FORT.
Baseball's roots run deep in Fort Wayne. From hosting the first professional baseball game in 1871 to generations of neighborhood diamonds, packed grandstands, and summer nights at the ballpark, the game has long been woven into the fabric of our city. This collection celebrates that connection—and the pride of calling the Summit City home.
THE STORY.
Fort Wayne isn't just where Old Fort Baseball Co. was founded.
It's why we exist.
As the site of the first professional baseball game in history, Fort Wayne holds a unique place in the story of the game. For more than 150 years, baseball has helped shape the identity of this community—from the Kekiongas and Daisies to Little League fields, high school diamonds, and nights at the ballpark.
​
The Rooted in the Fort collection celebrates that legacy through apparel inspired by the city, the state, and the traditions that continue to bring people together through baseball.
​
Because no matter where the game takes us, this will always be home.
