Oaklandish is a small- to mid-sized lifestyle brand based in Oakland, California, operating in the retail apparel and fashion sector. Founded in 2000, it centers on celebrating Bay Area history and civic pride, with origins in a guerrilla street art campaign and in zines and a gallery or community arts space. The company offers apparel and custom goods, with proceeds directed to local artists, events, and grassroots organizations.

Its customer base includes people who value regional culture and social engagement, seeking products that reflect Bay Area identity. Oaklandish engages in collaborations with artists and institutions to support culture and civic initiatives, illustrating its role within the Bay Area creative economy. A notable recent development is the February 2026 release of a revised 2026 edition of Educate to Liberate, a limited-edition capsule produced in collaboration with The Black Panther Party Alumni Legacy Network and Shepard Fairey alongside Oaklandish, signaling ongoing community-focused partnerships.
