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 on business.” 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 tentacles for everything it needs to do (hustle). It waits for the right time to strike (patience). It can lose a limb and grow it back stronger (resilience). That’s the mindset behind everything we do. Hustle. Patience. Resilience. Chi-Stee
