About ELN Apparel
ELN Apparel is more than just a brand; it's a testament to rediscovery, passion, and purpose. Founder Jen Rogers found an unexpected love for pickleball that reignited her competitive spirit, confidence, and joy after years dedicated to motherhood and her corporate career. What started as a hobby quickly became an obsession, transforming her mindset and outlook on life.
Jen realized pickleball was a way to reconnect with herself, build community, and embrace the strength and independence she had forgotten. This newfound passion led to the creation of ELN Apparel, designed to empower athletes and everyday players with stylish, high-performance pickleball wear that blends function, comfort, and confidence. Named after her sons – Eli, Liam, and Noah – ELN Apparel is a tribute to motherhood, perseverance, and the belief that it's never too late to chase what sets your soul on fire. ELN Apparel is crafted to help you feel your best, because when you feel confident, you play confident!
