PISTONS AND INK

About Us

Pistons & Ink is where roaring engines and old-school tattoos collide, born for those who live wide open, bleed nostalgia, and wear their story in oil stains and ink.

Our Team

Meet The Founders

We’re gearheads with ink-stained skin and gas in our veins. Chasing the smell of burnt rubber, the buzz of a tattoo needle, and the beauty of art in any form.

Why Support Pistons & Ink

At Pistons & Ink, we believe wrench-turning and tattooing are more than hobbies, they’re living, breathing forms of American art. By supporting us, you’re backing a culture that values creativity, craftsmanship, and the unapologetic expression of self through steel and skin.

“Finally, a brand that gets both sides of me.”

“I’ve been into hot rods since I was a kid and covered in ink since my twenties. Pistons & Ink is the only brand I’ve found that nails both aesthetics in one design. The style is bold, clean, and unapologetically authentic.”

“You can feel the quality the second you put it on.”

“These shirts aren’t just cool, they’re built like a damn classic car. High-quality fabric, perfect fit, and they actually get better with every wash. You can tell it’s not some mass-produced junk.”

“This brand is what the culture needed.”

“As a tattoo artist who grew up wrenching with my old man, it’s wild to see a company bring both passions together in one line. Pistons & Ink isn’t just apparel, it’s an attitude, and I’m here for it.”
