About Us

MisLabeled was born from a story that took over 38 years to understand.

For most of my life, I was given labels that never fit. I was told my symptoms were caused by stress, being out of shape, or simply "one of those things." Appointment after appointment, I left with more questions than answers.

The truth was there all along.

After decades of searching, I was finally diagnosed with a rare form of cystic fibrosis. That diagnosis didn't define me—it freed me. It gave a name to years of unanswered questions and reminded me that sometimes the labels placed on us by others aren't the truth.

That's where MisLabeled began.

This isn't just a clothing brand. It's a reminder.

A reminder that your diagnosis is not your identity. Your mistakes are not your future. Your past doesn't determine your worth. And the labels people place on you don't have the final say.

Every design carries a message because I believe what we wear can start conversations, encourage someone who's struggling, and remind people that they are seen.

Whether you've been misunderstood, overlooked, judged, or told you'll never amount to more, I hope you find something here that speaks to you.

Thank you for being part of this story.

Wear the message. Share the story.
