Built Different: The Legacy of Brenda Marie Gigi
The Legacy of Brenda Marie Gigi
Cheatcode Athletix was inspired by my late mother, Brenda Marie Gigi. She was unapologetically Built Different — fearless, bold, unstoppable. Every stitch carries her spirit and reminds us to embrace our power.
This brand is for you if you refuse to blend in.
It’s for the ones who stand out, who break the mold, who know they were put here to do more than just exist — they’re here to leave a mark. If you’re Built Different too, wear it proudly.
What you see here is family, community, and a message that reached beyond one person. Built Different was created from real life — and now it’s worn by schools, teams, and people who believe in standing together and standing for something.
I absolutely love my hoodie! 💗 It’s comfortable, great quality, and the message means so much to me. As I celebrate 3 years as a breast cancer survivor, the words “Built Different” hit home. From my double mastectomy to chemotherapy and everything in between, I’ve been through a journey that changed my life. This hoodie represents strength, resilience, and the reminder that I’m still here! 🎗️💪🏾 Highly recommend! ❤️
I have not yet worn the sweatshirt; however, the material is of exceptional quality and aesthetic appeal. I truly appreciate the design and color, as well as the meaningful cause it represents, particularly given my personal experience with breast cancer since 2007. This hoodie holds significant personal value to me. I wish you continued success in your professional endeavors and personal journey, and I am certain your mother would be immensely proud of your accomplishments. Thank you for this beautiful piece, and I look forward to sharing a photo once I have the opportunity to wear it. 🙂God Bless 🙌🏽 🙏🏽 🎀🌸
Stunning. Great quality. I would suggest sizing up if you dont want it to tight. My small was perfect, my boyfriends was a little snug. He still loves it.
when i washed it inside out like instructed, all of the color bled into the white. it is not wearable like this. i contacted customer service and have not heard from anyone.

Hi Wende, we sincerely apologize for the experience and for overlooking your original email. We’ve since reached out to you directly and are taking care of this with a replacement. This isn’t the experience we want any of our customers to have, and we appreciate you giving us the opportunity to make it right. — CheatCode Athletix
Received my hoodie and I absolutely love it! I did order a larger size than I usually do and thank god I did because these hoodies run small. But other than that I have no complaints about it. Shipping was fast, quality is amazing, and its the perfect weight for the fall season! Very satisfied customer

Hoodie is great work just feel xl is a little snug usally have large and xl usally gives a little room roomy feel but not this one. Would have given 5 star if fit was better.
Love the sweatshirt! Next time I will order up a size because I prefer a looser fit but that is completely on me, maybe I was feeling smaller the day I ordered lol! Also not good at taking photos of myself or (like to I guess?) but there you go. Also GO BILLS!!! ❤️ THE MAFIA!
We love the hoodies and the service was awesome. After finding that we needed larger sizes, I requested an exchange within a couple hours Gigi met me to complete the exchange. Thanks for making sure we had the right sizes before the first game.
Amazing experience! Saw the Facebook ad had to immediately myself and My Wife the hoodies for this upcoming football season. Let’s go Buffalo! We would’ve shared pictures, but it’s 100+ degrees down in Texas!
My absolute favorite sweatshirt from this company. I have three and all three are very well-made, unique and will be a staple in my wardrobe during football and hockey season.
Cheatcode Athletix isn’t just clothing — it’s a movement born from struggle, legacy, and purpose. Every stitch carries the mindset that made us: resilience, confidence, and never settling for average.

Because being Built Different isn’t about standing out — it’s about standing firm when life tests you.
