Our Story
Founded in 2024, I Live Here Gear started as a passion project—custom hats and apparel that represented the identity and pride of Fifth Ward, one of Newport’s most well-known neighborhoods. We saw an opportunity to create something bigger: a brand that speaks to the locals, students, and visitors who make Newport unique. Whether you’ve lived here your whole life or just moved to town, our gear is made for you.

What We Stand For
We believe in community, authenticity, and quality. Every piece of clothing we design is inspired by the culture, landmarks, and stories that make each place special. No mass-produced generic designs—just bold, locally inspired gear that connects you to the places and people you love.

What We Offer
- Premium streetwear & accessories (hats, hoodies, t-shirts, and more)
- Locally-inspired designs representing Newport and beyond
- Limited-edition seasonal drops (like our St. Paddy’s Day collection!)
- Collaborations with local artists & creators
- High-quality materials & craftsmanship

Our Mission
We’re here to help people represent their neighborhoods with pride. Whether you’re repping Fifth Ward, Newport, or another local gem, we want you to feel connected through quality apparel that tells a story and helps cultivate tight-knit communities.
Gear That Represents Where You Live & Who You Are
I Live Here Gear is more than just a brand—it's an embodiment of our history and roots. Born in the heart of Newport’s Fifth Ward, our apparel and accessories celebrate local pride, culture, and the unique spirit of the places we call home.
