The clothing brand defined by its bright colors and sporty designs dominated the fashion scene throughout the 80s and 90s, and while its continued production over the years, its popularity fizzled.

Costco Esprit sweatshirt has shoppers basking in the nostalgia
Over the last few days, Costco shoppers and influencers have taken to social media to share their warehouse discoveries, and this particular crewneck has brought a whole lot of joy. The Esprit Women’s Logo Fleece Crewneck comes in three styles, costing just $18.99 online. The cream-colored version has the Esprit logo embroidered in multiple colors across the chest, while the blue version opts for a monochromatic look, the embroidery being in the same color as the sweatshirt itself. The blue and cream versions are the only ones displayed on the Costco website, but some shoppers have shared posts that include a green version.
Though the Costco website indicates that these crewnecks are sold out, there’s still a good chance you can find these in person at your local warehouse—and those who have been lucky enough to find them have been loving the nostalgia.
Fans of the brand have taken to Reddit to reminisce and bask in the excitement of snagging one of these crewnecks, with one shopper joking, “I saw them and had a flashback right there in the middle of Costco. Oh wait, I had a hot flash.” Another fan shared, “My Costco has it in stock! Guess I know where I’m going tomorrow after work. I had a red and white Esprit tote that almost destroyed my shoulders in 8th grade because I had too many books in it.”
My Costco is sold out—Can you buy Esprit anywhere else?
While Esprit was a huge hit in the 80s, these days, it’s a lot harder to come by. After financial struggles and the closure of physical stores, many fans of the brand rely on vintage resellers and secondhand stores to get their Esprit fix—until now! Platforms such as Depop and Poshmark make it easy to track down your favorite finds of the past, and Costco’s new inventory has fans hoping a resurgence is imminent.
Whether you’re reliving your middle school glory days or discovering Esprit for the first time, this $19 crewneck is proof that some trends are worth bringing back. If your local Costco still has them in stock, don’t wait—these cozy throwbacks are disappearing fast. And who knows? This could be just the beginning of the comeback we’ve all been waiting for.
