About Us

Foley’s: The Philly Sports Shop is a neighborhood destination on South Street in Philadelphia, dedicated to premium Philly sports gear.

Owner John Foley, a lifelong Philadelphia sports fan and former Phillies beat writer, founded the shop to create a space for authentic, high-quality merchandise and community. You may already know him from his popular @2008Philz accounts on X and Bluesky, or his independent Phillies newsletter on Substack.

What Sets Us Apart

•  Our apparel features designs by talented local Philadelphia artists — no generic corporate merch here.

•  All memorabilia is sourced through our partners at Hunt Auctions, the Philly area’s most trusted name in authenticated collectibles for over 30 years.

•  Every item you see online is physically in our store and ready to ship — nothing is produced-on-demand.

•  We also carry locally made crafts, jewelry, home decor, and a growing selection of sports trading cards.


Any questions or concerns? Reach out directly to John at John@FoleysOnSouth.com.

Thank you for supporting a true local, independent Philly sports shop!
