Handmade in York, PA — Each Piece One of a Kind

Custom Apparel in Pittsburgh, PA

Handmade in York, PA — 176 miles from Pittsburgh, PA

Pittsburgh's transformation from steel city to innovation hub has created an organization landscape that blends working-class tradition with creative entrepreneurship — and custom apparel sits at the intersection of both. The city's fierce local pride, embodied in Steelers Nation and the "yinzer" identity, means Pittsburgh organizations expect branded apparel that reflects genuine connection to the community, not generic corporate templates.

Maria grew up in the Pittsburgh area and earned her art degree from Cal U of PA (now PennWest California), giving us an authentic understanding of western PA's culture. Pittsburgh's youth sports ecosystem — from the hundreds of youth football, hockey, and baseball programs feeding Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates fandom to the competitive high school sports scene — generates constant demand for team apparel, tournament tees, and fundraiser gear. The Strip District's wholesale culture and Lawrenceville's boutique corridor along Butler Street also support small businesses that need branded apparel to build recognition.

Pittsburgh's robust nonprofit sector, the universities (Pitt, CMU, Duquesne), and the corporate headquarters still anchored downtown all create custom apparel demand. At approximately 200 miles via the Turnpike, Pittsburgh orders ship in 2-3 business days. For organizations in the Pittsburgh metro, we maintain design files for fast reorders so seasonal and recurring apparel needs are fulfilled without starting from scratch each time.

About Pittsburgh, PA

Pittsburgh’s transformation from steel city to innovation hub has created one of the most dynamic small-business ecosystems in the country. The Strip District’s wholesale markets and maker shops, Lawrenceville’s boutique corridor along Butler Street, and the indie retail scene in Squirrel Hill and Shadyside reflect a city that has embraced creative entrepreneurship while maintaining its working-class authenticity — a combination that aligns perfectly with the Floorboard Findings brand.

Maria actually grew up in the Pittsburgh area — she earned her Bachelor’s in Art from Cal U of PA (California University of Pennsylvania, now PennWest California) before settling in York. That western PA connection gives us a genuine understanding of Pittsburgh’s culture and consumer preferences. The city’s fierce local pride — from Steelers Nation to the “yinzer” identity — means Pittsburgh shoppers actively seek out products made by Pennsylvanians, and our “handmade in York, PA” story resonates here in a way it might not in other metro markets.

Pittsburgh is approximately 200 miles west of our York studio via the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Standard ground shipping arrives in 2–3 business days. For Pittsburgh-area wholesale partners, we maintain inventory forecasting so reorders can ship the same day they’re placed.
