{{/if}}LGBTQIA+ Fitness Brands to Support
APPAREL
Out-Fit
This one checks all the boxes: % LGBTQ+ owned and offering Prideful fitness apparel that supports the cause. We especially love the rainbow barbell flag design and the Rob Kearney unicorn as tribute to the World’s Strongest Gay. Out-Fit also has a handful of designs that are a little more subtle than the rainbow flag.
Doughnuts & Deadlifts
DNDL has been a pretty outspoken supporter of the LGBTQ+ community since the beginning with brand messaging that speaks to rebellious contempt for the status quo. They are “a company made up of fitness misfits… for lifters, by lifters”, which includes historically oppressed groups. This year, their Pride run comes fulfill with a section for non-binary Theys. Bravo.
Viicaya
Still in its fledgling production, but we can’t delay for the launch of Viicaya by Mattie Rogers – Catalyst Athletics 71kg weightlifter, Olympic qualifier, and all-around badass. Her super unique activewear clothing line comes out this summer with impressively inclusive sizing and gender neutral styles. Viicay
This Pride Month, we&#;re shining a light on the outdoor brands that are LGBTQ-friendly all year round, rather than those that come after our pink dollars only during June!
The 10 brands listed here have all taken action in direct back of LGBTQIA lives.
They depart beyond Pride month merchandise and donate money directly to LGBTQ-led organizations. They&#;ve made statements of support on gay marriage and trans rights. They recognize the ways LGBTQ folks have historically been made to feel unwelcome and unsafe outdoors, and they&#;re working for change.
Some of these brands have legacies of supporting queer folks that stretch back over a decade!
Outdoor gear is expensive. So when we&#;re putting a good chunk of change down on needed equipment, why not support brands with track records of standing up for equality?
