About Pennsylvania

The story of Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania is the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, the steel bridges of Pittsburgh, Amish farmland in Lancaster, and the battlefield at Gettysburg.

History & heritage

The second state to ratify the Constitution in 1787, Pennsylvania hosted the Declaration of Independence, the Constitutional Convention and the turning point of the Civil War at Gettysburg. With the state motto Virtue, Liberty, and Independence and a founding year of 1787, Pennsylvania carries a history you can wear on your chest — that's what our print-on-demand apparel is here for.

Geography & landscape

The Appalachians roll diagonally through the state, the Delaware borders the east, and the Ohio, Allegheny and Monongahela meet in Pittsburgh. Covering 46,054 sq mi, Pennsylvania lies in the Mid-Atlantic region and runs on Eastern time.

Culture, food and traditions

Eagles vs. Steelers rivalries, cheesesteaks in Philly, pierogi in Pittsburgh, Hersheypark chocolate, and Amish buggies in Lancaster shape the Keystone State. From regional flavors like Philly cheesesteak, Hershey chocolate, soft pretzel to festivals such as Philadelphia Flower Show and Musikfest, the culture of Pennsylvania shows up in every collection we design.

Sports, colleges and community

Home teams like Eagles, Steelers, 76ers, Flyers and universities such as Penn State, Penn, Carnegie Mellon anchor communities across the state — and inspire many of our Pennsylvania designs.
