🏆 The Pittman Boys! More Than Just Athletes, They’re Building a Brand

TL;DR: Four brothers. One brand. A vision beyond football. The Pittman Boys—a tight-knit group of athletes from John Carroll High School—are launching their Pippin’ Boys clothing line this Saturday. What started as their father’s community work has grown into a full-fledged business with a mission: financial stability, giving back, and building something that lasts.

💬 Why It Matters: This isn’t just another merch drop. It’s young athletes thinking beyond the game, proving that entrepreneurship and sports can go hand in hand.

👕 From the Field to Fashion: The Pippin’ Boys brand traces back to their father’s efforts in the community—organizing events for kids and later selling Italian ice. Over time, that evolved into a clothing brand that represents their journey and ambition.

The Name & Colors: The brand name represents their bond as brothers, and their core colors—blue, black, and white—pay homage to their high school, John Carroll.

Bigger Than Merch: Their goal is to generate $10,000 annually—ensuring financial security long after their football careers end.

A Community Focus: Beyond making money, they want to give back to younger athletes and inspire kids to think about business at an early age.

🏈 Football First, But Not Forever: While their brand is a major focus, football is still the main priority for the Pittman Boys.

Each brother plays a different position, but they all push each other to be better.

Their dream schools include Oregon, Colorado, USF, and Houston—with a strong focus on programs that develop top talent.

Trash talk? A family tradition. One brother admits, “I talk to the other team’s sideline before I even return a kick.”

💡 The Business Mindset: When asked who’s the most business-savvy, the brothers couldn’t pick just one. It’s clear that entrepreneurship runs in the family—including their little sister, who already runs her own successful lemonade business.

“Best lemonade in the world, if you ask me.”

📅 What’s Next? The Pippin’ Boys brand officially launches this Saturday, with merch available for purchase. But this is just the beginning. Whether it’s in football, fashion, or business, the Pittman Boys are building something bigger than themselves.
