Bellevue Embroidered Crewneck

About this piece

The Bellevue embroidered crewneck puts a real Pittsburgh neighborhood on soft, heavyweight fleece. The design arches “BELLEVUE” in golden-yellow thread across the chest, with “Pittsburgh, PA” stitched underneath — real machine embroidery worked directly into a heavyweight royal blue Gildan Heavy Blend 18000 crewneck, not a printed graphic and not a sewn-on patch. You can feel the stitch relief in the thread if you run a hand over it, which is the whole point: it’s built to last through actual wear, not just look good in a flat lay.

This is one piece in YinzMart’s Pittsburgh Neighborhood Series, which is putting real ‘Burgh neighborhoods — not just generic “PGH” branding — on soft, heavyweight fleece. If Bellevue is home, this is the shirt that says so without shouting about it.

Care & details

The blank is Gildan’s 18000 Heavy Blend: 8.0 oz/yd² fleece with a brushed interior, rib cuffs and waistband with spandex for recovery, and double-needle stitching at the shoulders, armholes, neck, waistband, and cuffs. For washing and drying, follow the instructions on the garment’s sewn-in care label.

About the maker

YinzMart is Pittsburgh’s own multi-vendor marketplace, and the Neighborhood Series is a house-designed line built to celebrate specific ‘Burgh neighborhoods the way locals actually talk about them. Every piece in the series ships from the same idea: your neighborhood deserves better than a shirt that just says “Pittsburgh.”
