WearPittsburgh Arrives!
After a long and laborious gestation period, I’m happy to announce that WearPittsburgh has gone live. And, like any newborn child, I’m happy to show off this proud creation to the world.
WearPittsburgh brings great t-shirt designs that not only celebrate but also poke fun at the city and surrounding communities of Pittsburgh. These designs are printed on high quality material and believe me, speaking from experience having tried out numerous prototypes, they are very comfortable and quite stylish. We have three main product lines:
BurghWear: Designs that showcase the neighborhoods and places that make the city special, or things that make Pittsburgh unique.
YinzWear: Tees that are inspired by or designed by those who love the Pittsburgh. Websites, blogs, podcasts, and other forms of new media here are often great sources for our designs.
JagWear: As the tagline says, “If you don’t know already, then you don’t know.” Seriously, these are shirts that poke fun (in an endearing sort of way) at the idiocycracies, phenomena, and general uniqueness that is found in The Burgh.
We couldn’t have gotten here without the help of our manufacturing partner, Spreadshirt. Katy D Design Studio did some awesome work on many of the designs, and our friends at Big Big Design put together a wonderful look for the website. Special thanks to all those who have provided encouragement and support in getting to this point. You guys rock!
Feel free to have a look around, and if you have any questions please use the Contact Us form to send some feedback.
Enjoy!

I can’t wait until the submission instructions are up–I’ve had an idea brewing in my head for a while for a PGH T-shirt!

Love the shirts. You are right I left The Burgh 5 years ago and if I could move back today I would. Loved the reserved parking. When I moved there in 1993 I encountered that was clueless, but learned quickly. Keep it up will be ordering soon.
