Pi Phi Apparel Aimed at More Than a Logo
The arrow, the angel, and a mission built around literacy. Pi Beta Phi chapters put their letters behind reading and achievement, and the merch a chapter orders should carry that purpose with the design. We make custom Pi Beta Phi apparel around your chapter's own artwork, for the full Pi Phi year:
- Recruitment and Bid Day apparel for the new member class
- Read Lead Achieve and First Book literacy philanthropy pieces
- Big and little reveal sets across the Pi Phi family
- Arrow-themed sisterhood and event apparel
- Everyday Pi Phi sweatshirts and tees in steady rotation
Bring your design or build it in the Design Studio, and we produce it in your colors with your letters.

87 chapter-ready styles for Pi Beta Phi. Each style has its own page so you can set titles and copy for your chapter.
The Arrow Should Point Sharp, Not Blur Out
The Pi Phi arrow is a clean, precise mark, and a soft print or a muddy color undercuts it. We build Pi Beta Phi apparel so the arrow and letters stay crisp, in the decoration that keeps them sharp, from a bold literacy-event print to a stitched arrow on a keepsake crewneck.
Pi Beta Phi sweatshirts, shirts, and arrow pieces
Your chapter can order Pi Phi sweatshirts, crewnecks, hoodies, tees, and tanks, each made to order in Wine and Silver Blue or a palette your chapter chooses. For pieces built to last, stitched and sewn on letters, chenille, and applique join every print method we offer.
Wine and Silver Blue, matched before you order
Pi Beta Phi's colors are Wine and Silver Blue, a rich red paired with a soft cool blue that both drift easily on a screen. We confirm the exact shades and proof them before production, so the wine on a literacy tee is the same wine on a sister's hoodie across the whole chapter.
Why Pi Phi Chapters Order From a Licensed Vendor
Literacy events put your letters in front of the public, where a trademark problem is the last thing a chapter needs. We are officially licensed for Pi Beta Phi and built for the chapter order, not single-piece retail. How we compare for a Pi Phi chapter:

Pi Beta Phi Merch FAQs
Yes. Arete Greek is an officially licensed vendor for Pi Beta Phi through Affinity, the licensing body sororities use to approve apparel producers. We can legally produce your ΠΒΦ letters, the arrow, your crest, and chapter marks, and we handle the design approval Nationals requires before printing. Ordering from a licensed vendor keeps your chapter clear of trademark issues, which matters most on the public literacy and Read Lead Achieve pieces your mission depends on.
Pi Phi chapters order a mix shaped by their calendar: literacy and philanthropy events bring tees and tanks with clean, readable designs, while recruitment and fall drive crewnecks and heavyweight hoodies. Everyday Pi Phi sweatshirts stay in steady rotation. Because every piece is made to order, chapters often combine several styles in one order so the whole family matches in one design while each sister picks her own fit.
Pi Beta Phi's colors are Wine and Silver Blue, a deep red paired with a soft cool blue. Both shift easily on a screen, wine toward burgundy and silver blue toward gray, so we confirm the exact shades with you and proof them before production. Whether your design uses both or leans on one, we lock the colors in first so the whole chapter arrives matching rather than close-enough.
A Pi Phi order starts at just 10 pieces per design, below the 12, 24, or 25 floor most Greek vendors set. A literacy committee, an exec board, or a new member class gets exactly the count it needs and nothing wasted. The free proof, Affinity licensing, Wine and Silver Blue matching, and certified production stay the same from ten pieces to two hundred, and the full order reaches one chapter address together.
Expect about two weeks of production once your proof is approved, plus three to five business days to ship with DHL, FedEx, or UPS. When a literacy event or recruitment is near, rush delivers in a week for an added fee. Since Pi Phi plans its dates well ahead, telling us your in-hand date upfront means we set the right track from day one.
