Cam Newton’s Clothing Line Propsers at Belk!
Putting my name on my clothing line, first off, is a dream come true. And I would like to see it flourish, Cam said. But my first calling is football, so Im trying to take care of that first.

Thats up from 17 percent in the same period a year ago. Womens remained Belks top category, at 38 percent, followed by cosmetics, shoes and accessories, at 31 percent.”
