About Us

Built by Chicago. Made for the world.

Chi-Stee began with a group of friends making music under our own label, Chi-Stee Records. The sound caught attention — but so did the gear we wore on stage. What started as custom pieces for our circle quickly grew into something bigger. People wanted in.

One night at a Bulls game, someone told us, “I’m trying to shop with you, but you don’t even have a site — you’re missing out.” They were right. From there, we built the brand, launched the site, and trademarked "Chi-Stee."

Our logo, the Chi-Octopus, embodies Chicago’s energy — resourceful, patient, and resilient. In this city, everyone’s got a side hustle; an octopus has eight for everything it needs to do. It can lose a limb and grow it back stronger. That’s the mindset behind everything we do.

Chi-Stee is approachable streetwear designed in Chicago, made for the world. Elevated fabrics, original designs, timeless details — without the luxury markup.

It’s a Chi-Stee world. Dress accordingly.
