About the Business: Celebrating 80 Years

Hibbett's story began in 1945, when Rufus Hibbett founded Dixie Supply Company, which quickly evolved into Hibbett Sporting Goods, focusing on team sports. Over the decades, the company transformed, strategically expanding its footprint and product offerings.

This growth saw Hibbett evolve from a traditional sporting goods retailer into a premier athletic-inspired fashion and sneaker-first destination, a shift significantly bolstered by the 2018 acquisition of City Gear1.

This move cemented Hibbett's "Toe-to-Head" style approach, further expanded in 2024 with the launch of KidsHibbett.com. Through consistent innovation, Hibbett grew from a single store to over 1,000 locations across 35 states, strategically serving communities with the freshest trends.

Headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, Hibbett reached a significant milestone in July 2024 when it was acquired by JD Sports Fashion plc, a global leader in sports fashion. This acquisition marked a new chapter, integrating Hibbett into a worldwide network while maintaining its commitment to providing top-tier athletic footwear, apparel, and accessories. Hibbett continues to thrive, constantly evolving to stay ahead in the dynamic world of athletic fashion.

1Since the JD acquisition, City Gear is no longer part of the Hibbett Retail, Inc. brand family. Today, this brand is part of the DTLR and Shoe Palace network within JD North America.
