About Nevada

The story of Nevada

Nevada is Vegas neon on the Strip, Lake Tahoe granite, Great Basin silence and sagebrush stretching to every horizon.

History & heritage

Admitted during the Civil War in 1864 as the 36th state, Nevada was built on silver mining from the Comstock Lode. With the state motto All for Our Country and a founding year of 1864, Nevada carries a history you can wear on your chest — that's what our print-on-demand apparel is here for.

Geography & landscape

Nevada is the driest state — the Sierra rises in the west, the Great Basin covers the middle, and the Mojave spreads across the south. Covering 110,572 sq mi, Nevada lies in the West region and runs on Pacific time.

Culture, food and traditions

The Vegas Strip, Burning Man in the Black Rock Desert, Reno's biggest little city, and the ranching country of Elko coexist in one wide-open state. From regional flavors like shrimp cocktail, basque cuisine, picon punch to festivals such as Burning Man and Electric Daisy Carnival, the culture of Nevada shows up in every collection we design.

Sports, colleges and community

Home teams like Raiders, Golden Knights, Aces and universities such as UNLV, UNR anchor communities across the state — and inspire many of our Nevada designs.

Parks, landmarks and wildlife

Landmarks like Las Vegas Strip, Hoover Dam, Lake Tahoe, Area 51 and protected lands such as Great Basin, Lake Tahoe, Red Rock Canyon give Nevada its outdoor identity. The state animal is the Desert Bighorn Sheep, the state bird is the Mountain Bluebird, and the state tree is the Bristlecone Pine — all of which show up in our nature and park collections.
