OUR STORY
The staff at AJ Spirt Wear has decades of experience working with and within the K-12 education industry. Everything from grade school and high school coaching to K-12 IT/technical support to day-to-day grade school and high school administration. When the opportunity to get involved with youth sports presented itself outside of the k-12 environment it was a natural fit. Today the staff of AJ Spirit Wear continues to be involved in youth sports including sitting on the board of directors for numerous Chicagoland youth sports organizations.
When Covid hit in 2020 AJ Studios was founded. AJ Studios was set up as a boutique prototyping shop focused on providing unique accessories for spin cycles from Peloton, Schwinn’s and Bow flex. AJ Studios was our catalyst into online sales, online store fronts and online marketplaces which would later become the foundation for AJ Spirit Wear.
As youth sports started to pick back up during Covid in 2021, uniforms, including spirit wear, became an issue due to Covid related supply chain issues. In 2022 and 2023, as the world returned to normal, spirit wear remained an issue. That’s when we came to the realization that youth spirit wear wasn’t struggling because of Covid. Youth spirit was struggling because most local spirit ware vendors were providing a broken service using an outdated business model.
AJ Spirit Wear was able to reimagine spirit wear using the same workflows that made AJ Studios successful. Online store fronts and marketplaces as well as the emerging apparel embellishment on demand market. These tools allowed us to develop a business model based on providing our customers with a needed service that goes beyond spirit wear while our competition continued to embrace an antiquated wholesale/retail business model.
