Blue collar has always backed Red

Read Red's story Close the story

I grew up around custom cars and bikes. My uncle got me into the autobody industry when I was very young and I never left. I've been in the body shop for over 30 years, always surrounded by hard-working, blue-collar people who took pride in their work.

I moved to the Florida Keys in the late '90s, surrounded by commercial fishermen, diesel mechanics, outboard mechanics, welders, fabricators and fiberglass guys. That's where I built the brand. I started making BlueCollarPimps 🏴‍☠️ stickers and putting them on everybody's toolboxes, welders, trucks and coolers. People loved it. It was a catchy phrase.

It represents hard-working people. It's not built for the lazy. BlueCollarPimps make shit happen!

Questions from the crew

What sizes do Blue Collar Pimps shirts come in?

Every shirt comes in M, L, XL and XXL. The black long sleeve dry-fit also comes in S.

How long does shipping take?

Every order ships in 5 to 10 business days.

Is there free shipping?

Yes. Orders over $75 ship free.

What is the return policy?

We take returns for 30 days after delivery on unworn, unwashed shirts, and size exchanges are free: we cover shipping the new size to you. If something arrives damaged, misprinted or wrong, email a photo within 14 days and we will replace it or refund you at no cost.

What is the difference between the cotton tees and the dry-fits?

The tees and tanks are classic cotton. The dry-fits are lightweight performance shirts made for hot shops and long days outside, and the long sleeve version adds a print down the sleeve.

How do Blue Collar Pimps shirts fit?

They are standard, regular fit shirts, not slim or athletic cut. If you are between sizes or like room to move on the job, size up. Size exchanges are free, so if it does not fit, swap it.

How should I wash my shirt?

Wash cold, inside out, and tumble dry low or hang dry. That keeps the print sharp and keeps the cotton shirts from shrinking.

Who started Blue Collar Pimps?

Red, a body shop guy with over 30 years in the autobody industry. Red built the brand in the Florida Keys, starting with BlueCollarPimps stickers on toolboxes, welders, trucks and coolers around the commercial fishermen, mechanics, welders and fabricators there.
