Our Story

KilHatTees is a family-run shop built by two siblings with big goals and busy lives. Killian and Hannah are college students in Texas working toward graduation, paying down student loans, and building something they can grow for life—together.

This year is extra special: Hannah was accepted into a summer study program in Oxford. So we’re relaunching KilHatTees with a simple mission: create merch people genuinely love to wear, while helping fund real student goals.

Our Mission

Every purchase supports the KAT Education Fund—helping two students:

  • finish college strong,

  • pay down student loans,

  • fund Hannah’s Oxford summer experience,

  • and repair Killians 26 year old car so he can commute.

When you wear KilHatTees, you’re not just buying a shirt—you’re backing real people building their future.

Meet Our Founders

Discover the dynamic duo behind KilHat Tees, where passion meets purpose. Our founders, Killian and Hannah, are not just siblings but also visionary entrepreneurs committed to creating meaningful merchandise while pursuing their academic dreams.

Killian

Killian

Killian attends University of Houston and is a Computer Science major. He’s been playing soccer since he was 2, coaches varsity soccer while in school, and also loves disc golf and gaming.

Killian brings the same discipline to life that he brings to the field. He’s served as head coach for the men’s varsity soccer team at Frassati Catholic School for three years, after coaching JV the year before—while still balancing school. Off the clock, you’ll find him playing Sunday league, on the disc golf course, breaking down match film, or elbow-deep repairing his 26-year-old Toyota Celica—because he’s the kind of person who loves a challenge and refuses to quit on something with potential.

Hannah

Hannah

Hannah attends Southern Methodist University and is a CS/Data Science major with a history minor. She’s all about learning, building, and creative projects—especially anything that mixes nostalgia, storytelling, and design.

Hannah is the definition of steady determination. While studying CS/Data Science (with a history minor) and preparing for her summer program in Oxford, she’s also working two jobs to help cover school expenses. She’s always been a creator—she even wrote and released an original song she wrote in high school—and KilHatTees is her way of turning hard work and creativity into something that can support their future long-term.

How Orders Work

We use trusted print-on-demand partners (like Printify) to produce items after you order. That means:

  • we can offer more designs and sizes,

  • reduce waste by printing only what’s purchased,

  • and ship straight to you.

A Heartfelt Thank You

Gratitude and Growth

If you’ve ever supported a student, mentored someone, or simply believe education opens doors—thank you for being here. Your purchase helps turn deadlines, tuition, and big dreams into real opportunities.
