Our first baby inspired us to start AXL Brand, as we were not finding the simple, clean and modern basics that we preferred- so, we decided to make our own. This also provided us with an opportunity to incorporate how we felt about materials (incredibly soft organic ring-spun interlock cottons) and fit / function (roomy feet on footies, v-necks and flatlock stitching). Our second baby motivated us to incorporate our later, more traditionally feminine colors. Now toddlers, both children inspire me to grow AXL Brand into a long-lasting, sustainable brand known for providing exceptionally well-made modern organic infant apparel and accessories.

Former environmental management consultant turned infant apparel manufacturer. I?m a “normal” guy who likes to get dirty, fix things and live in the wilderness for extended periods of time. I?ve always been fascinated with the manufacturing process, but I never thought I would be making infant apparel. The direction my life has taken these past couple of years makes me laugh, at least.
