About / Our Story

Our Story

Abstract and Other Things© was born from a simple belief: awareness changes everything. We create apparel and gifts that don't just look good — they start conversations, honor communities, and stand for something bigger.

What We Stand For

We are a cause-driven brand, which means every product we make is tied to a cause we care deeply about. When you wear or gift something from our store, you're not just making a style choice — you're making a statement of solidarity and support.

The causes close to our heart include:

  • Suicide Prevention — Mental health is health. We create designs that help reduce stigma, spark conversations, and remind people they are never alone.
  • Juneteenth — Celebrating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans and honoring the ongoing journey toward freedom, equity, and justice.
  • Autism Acceptance — Moving beyond awareness to full acceptance — celebrating neurodiversity and the unique strengths of autistic individuals.
  • Disability Pride — Because disability is a natural part of human diversity. We uplift disabled voices and celebrate the community with pride.
  • And more — Our collection continues to grow as we find more causes and communities deserving of visibility and respect.

How It Works

Our products are made-to-order through print-on-demand using Printful. That means every item is printed and shipped when you order it — no excess inventory, no waste. It's a sustainable way to bring meaningful design to life.

Why We Do It

We believe visibility matters. Wearing a cause on your sleeve — literally — opens doors for conversations that might not otherwise happen. Whether it's at the grocery store, school, or a family gathering, our products help you show the world what you stand for.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for caring. And thank you for wearing your values.
