Rural lifestyle retailer will be the exclusive home for select Field & Stream outdoor and hunting products

Tractor Supply Company (NASDAQ: TSCO), the largest rural lifestyle retailer in the United States, announced today a multi-year, strategic licensing partnership with Field & Stream, the most-trusted voice of the outdoors. Beginning in June, Tractor Supply customers can shop a variety of hunting and outdoor products created in collaboration with Field & Stream at stores nationwide and online. An expanded assortment of products is planned for the fall, with an exclusive line of apparel launching in 2026.

“For generations, Field & Stream and Tractor Supply have been pillars of the outdoor community. Field & Stream has inspired millions to explore and cherish the outdoors, while Tractor Supply has equipped them with the tools and products to make those adventures possible,” said Seth Estep, chief merchandising officer at Tractor Supply. “Our shared communities, values, histories and interests make for a natural and seamless partnership. This June, we launch the first Field & Stream products as part of our annual Deer Event, which kicks off hunting season with special in-store programing and promotions. Over time, Field & Stream products will include gun safes, hunting blinds, deer feeders, game cameras and more. The larger collection begins arriving in store and online this November. We can't wait to see the incredible experiences this partnership will bring to our customers.”

Field & Stream’s origins date back to 1871 when an outerwear manufacturer, Gordon & Furguson, opened their doors in St. Paul, Minnesota and later launched a clothing line under the brand “Field & Stream”. A few years later, Charles Haddock founded a large-format periodical that covered hunting, fishing, and conservation and called it “Field and Stream”. The next generation of the Field & Stream magazine, born in a duck blind, came to life in 1895, and has engaged sportsmen and conservationists ever since. After years of publishing captivating stories in print, the brand transitioned into a digital destination in 2020. Entertainers Eric Church and Morgan Wallen, along with a group of experienced brand builders, acquired and relaunched Field & Stream in 2024, unifying this legacy brand for the first time in its history. The Field & Stream collection at Tractor Supply is the brand’s first brick-and-mortar retail collaboration since the relaunch.

“I can’t think of two better brands that go hand-in-hand than Field & Stream and Tractor Supply,” said Eric Church, partner in Field & Stream. "The very same people who shop at Tractor Supply are the ones who turn to Field & Stream magazine and its stories to open their imagination to the possibilities of a world without boundaries. I know, because I’m one of them. Together, there’s no limit to what we can achieve."

“We are proud to align Field & Stream alongside Tractor Supply,” said Doug McNamee Field & Stream president. “With over 235 years of combined history, our companies are united by a shared commitment to community, tradition, and a deep respect for the land we work and play on. Together, we believe the stories of Field & Stream, combined with the retail excellence of Tractor Supply, will redefine the outdoor experience for our customers, creating unforgettable adventures and setting a new standard for collaboration.”

In addition to a shared passion for the outdoors, Tractor Supply and Field & Stream are both deeply committed to conservation. The Tractor Supply Company Foundation ranks land and nature conservation as one of the retailer’s four priority areas of giving, while part of Field & Stream’s stated purpose is to lead the charge to conserve and fight for wildlife and wild places. This partnership presents an opportunity to increase awareness and impact in these areas.
