| - With a name like Definitely You, one would think it to be a women's boutique.
Then what the hell am I doing reviewing it?
Yeah, your dad wears capri pants. Ok, smart guy?
No, Definitely You is nothing more or less than a shrine to Pittsburgh sports. On every wall, corner, display table, rack, and counter, one will find unisex Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates gear. DY is stocked to the rafters with jersey's, t-shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, bobbleheads, keychains, posters, towels, and everything else that can carry a local sports logo. What you won't find are dresses, blouses, and lingerie. Think of the Clubhouse Shop at PNC Park or Hometown Sports at South Hills Village rather than DEB, Lane Bryant, or Forever 21.
The shop captured my attention and affection so much as we pulled into Brentwood Towne Square that I ditched Kay at the Dollar Tree. Tiring of looking at junky toys to kill time while she browsed for whatever, I jogged a few doors down to Definitely You, my mouth and eyes widening as I first stepped in. I'm not nearly as die-hard as my fellow Pittsburgh stitch-heads are, and even I was impressed with the depth and abundance of merchandise to be found there. I can only imagine how much money those who paint their torsos black and yellow will drop here once they discover it.
I think they should change their name to Definitely Pittsburgh or Definitely Black 'N Gold, though, so as not to deter the macho...
