The collection from the makers offers items for adults and children, including kids' onesies and books, as well as unique jewelry for adults. The shop's website notes that the co-founders, Tiffica Benza, Ashley Peel, and Jennifer Provost, curated a selection of the city's best talent.

Some of the items listed as best sellers on the site include a green-and-white "No One Likes Us...We Don't Care" Philadelphia Eagles beanie selling for $30 and a "Drawn Jawn" Philadelphia-themed adult coloring book for $24.
