About this Pittsburgh rainbow crewneck

This Pittsburgh rainbow crewneck wears the city’s name across the chest in arched varsity block letters — every letter a different color of the rainbow, all of it stitched in real embroidery thread instead of heat-pressed print. The base is a dark chocolate Gildan 18000 Heavy Blend, the same fleece that has been the Pittsburgh sweatshirt standard for thirty years: brushed soft inside, sturdy outside, with a no-stretch ribbed collar that holds its shape past a hundred washes.

The chocolate brown reads warmer than the typical heather grey crewneck — it lands somewhere between coffee, walnut, and a worn-in leather jacket. It also nods, intentionally, to the brown stripe added to the Progress Pride flag for Black and brown LGBTQ+ communities. Steel City pride and Pride pride, on a sweatshirt you’ll still want to wear in October when Pride Month is six months behind you.

Fit, fabric & care

Classic unisex crewneck cut — relaxed through the body, not cropped, not oversized. The 50/50 cotton-poly blend dries fast and holds color through the wash, and the deeper brown hides the bit of fuzz that wool and lighter fleeces show. Available in Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large, and XXL.

Material: 50% cotton / 50% polyester, 8 oz heavyweight fleece (Gildan 18000)
Decoration: Multicolor embroidered lettering, arched across the chest
Color: Dark Chocolate (deep warm brown)
Care: Machine wash cold inside-out, tumble dry low, no iron over the embroidery

Frequently asked

Is the rainbow PITTSBURGH actually embroidered or printed?

Embroidered. Real stitched thread, raised slightly off the fleece — you can feel the texture. It won’t crack, peel, or wash off the way heat-pressed vinyl does.

How does the crewneck fit — true to size?

Yes, classic unisex fit. Order your normal sweatshirt size for a relaxed (not cropped, not oversized) cut. If you’re between sizes and want it roomier, size up one.

What’s the fabric — will it pill?

Gildan 18000 Heavy Blend, 50% cotton / 50% polyester, 8 oz fleece. The poly keeps pilling down compared to 100% cotton sweatshirts, and the dark chocolate base hides the bit of fuzz that does show up after years of wear.

Why brown — does it tie to the Progress Pride flag?

Partly, yes. The brown stripe was added to the Progress Pride flag in 2018 to represent Black and brown LGBTQ+ communities, and the dark chocolate colorway is a quiet nod to that. It also just reads warmer than a grey or black sweatshirt — fall layer energy, not Pride Month only.

How do I wash it without ruining the embroidery?

Turn it inside-out, machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Skip the iron over the rainbow letters — if you need to press the rest of the sweatshirt, use a pressing cloth and avoid the embroidered area.

Can I pick it up in Pittsburgh instead of shipping?

Shipping is free from Pittsburgh, so most local buyers just have it shipped. If you need local pickup for a time-sensitive gift, message YinzMart before ordering.
