Store History at the Mall
Chest-Tees (often referred to as Customized Teez) is a longtime staple of the Monroeville Mall, known for its rapid turnaround of custom-designed apparel. While Chandler's Shoes was a legacy anchor of the mall's 1969 opening, Chest-Tees represents the modern era of personalized retail that has kept the mall's corridors active in recent decades.
Store History & Details
- Specialization: The kiosk is famous for its "while-you-wait" service, capable of producing custom shirts in as little as 7 to 15 minutes.
- Product Range: Beyond standard T-shirts, they offer hoodies, uniforms, and accessories. Customers can choose from an extensive library of templates or bring in their own digital photos for printing.
- Cultural Context: Given the mall's fame as the filming location for Dawn of the Dead, Chest-Tees has frequently served fans seeking custom horror-themed merchandise, often complementing the nearby Living Dead Museum.
- Location: Historically situated as a prominent kiosk in the high-traffic corridors, typically near major hubs like the JCPenney or Macy's wings.
