About Us

"Who are you guys?"

We are a group of musicians and designers who wanted to create a new Pittsburgh brand of clothes. We wanted to make an powerful icon built from the ground up around the city we love. We set out to make a brand that represents equal parts Pittsburgh pride and the counter culture clothing we all love.

 "Why black and yellow? Isn't Pittsburgh The Black and GOLD?"

Yes, Historically Pittsburgh's colors have been called Black and Gold. For a full breakdown on why we call ourselves Black and Yellow, read this detailed explanation RIGHT HERE

 "Are you affiliated with Wiz Khalifa?"

No. Wiz made a song called "Black and yellow." We aren't affiliated with Wiz but we definitely dig his music and we are very proud that a fellow Pittsburgher has made such a name for himself. If you came here looking for Wiz Khalifa merchandise, simply CLICK HERE and tell them we said Hi!

"What's with all the skulls and what do they have to do with Pittsburgh?"

Our icon is called "The Skyline Skull" because it's a skull with the skyline of Pittsburgh built in the teeth. That has never been done before with any city and it's exclusive to Black and yellow apparel and Pittsburgh, PA. The Skull represents our undying loyalty to Pittsburgh and means we are Pittsburghers till death. To learn more about our Logo, read our blog by CLICKING HERE

  "Ok, but what kind of material are your shirts? Cool designs and logos don't mean anything if the shirts aren't good quality."

  Oh, we certainly agree. As consumers, We have a bunch of shirts that we bought for the designs but ended up disliking the actual fabric and as a result, never wore more than a few times. Here at Black and Yellow, we are self admitted t-shirt snobs. We only use the best garments we have access to. Every item you see on our site has been worn, washed and tested by us first. We have gone to great lengths to assure the customer gets the best products possible. 

 "Was another Pittsburgh clothing brand necessary?"

YES

 "Is it true that your skull emblem was made from an X-ray of the owners head?"

NO
