Inclusivity is Always in Style at Zephyr Apparel
Awareness apparel is having its moment in our society. With so many causes to advocate for, it’s common to see people proudly displaying what they are passionate about. An online store I love because of their fun, comfortable, and stylish awareness apparel is Zephyr Apparel on Etsy.
Zephyr Apparel is a family owned business based out of Stafford, TX and is run by Joselin Jordan and her husband Osman Aksakal. At a glance:
- Along with their brother-in-law and 3 other colleagues, they aim to promote inclusivity for all individuals with their custom apparel.
- Their initial focus was Mental Health Advocacy apparel, but has since expanded to other custom apparel including Neurodiversity and Autism Acceptance. Having a loved one who is neurodivergent inspired this family owned business to include awareness for the neurodiverse community.
“We created this collection because we believe it’s important to promote acceptance and understanding of neurodiverse individuals. Our goal is to spread awareness and support for these communities, and we hope many others will join us in this mission.”
Joselin is always updating her designs based on feedback from customers. For example, customers reached out to Joselin to relay that the rainbow infinity symbol is now commonly used for Autism Acceptance. Her wheels are already turning to get new products together!
It’s refreshing to see a business who values their customers’ opinions and expertise to help further their inclusive advocacy. Continue to support small businesses, and Etsy, by purchasing some Awareness and Acceptance apparel from Zephyr Apparel!

Families in the Bucks County, PA area - check out @lucentreflections for your family photos!
Lucy was so engaged with my children, and gave my son time to warm up to her and the idea of photos. She was so flexible with our ever changing schedule, and even came to our house where my son was more comfortable.
She is a blessing to the neurodivergent population and giving space and time so that every family member feels comfortable!
Thanks for the beautiful photos, Lucy ❤️
