There are lots of ways you can get involved with holding the not so queer or ethical brands accountable for their exploitation and I'd love to see you involved.

If you want to learn more about my 'Who Made My Pride Merch Campaign?' then click here. You can also buy tees from local charities too (as long as you're actually going to end up wearing them.Īlso consider just donating money straight to LGBTQ+ charities this month if you want your money do some good but aren't feeling the merch side of things. If you have a pride in your area selling merch, consider buying from them! I've seen a lot of pride events switch over to ethical and sustainable manufacturing, such as Northern Pride, and you help to keep a local pride event going through these difficult times. They have a range of bow ties, pocket and pocket squares (including reversible ones) in lots of bright prints. Living in Colour self Tie bowtie | Purple crush pocket square | Kaleidoscope bowtie Bowtie Behaviourīowtie behaviour is a Black owned, handmade bowtie brand based in the Bronx, New York. I've also made sure to include Black and POC owned brands but this list is still lacking in that way so any suggestions are welcome! And I will discuss these things under each brand! There's everything from pride tees, to art pieces, underwear, jewellery and makeup. Now the niche of 'Queer owned, ethical, and sustainable' is quite a tight one and so all of the brands on this list are ethically made, most are queer/LGBTQ+ owned, and a lot are sustainable in one shape or form. No you don't have to support unethical brands like Primark, H&M, and boohoo to get your pride merch fix this month (and beyond) and you can instead support queer owned brands and give your money to small, ethical businesses owners, rather than billionaires! With this campaign running I have had a lot of people ask me for queer ethical brands to shop with, for both pride merch and general every day stuff that's more inclusive and so here we are! With our spacious guest rooms and suites, sparkling indoor and outdoor pools, dining in The Commons, and close proximity to the scenic Newport waterfront, you’ll find everything you need for a memorable stay.As you're probably already aware of, it's pride month! And you may have already seen my 'Who Made My Pride Merch?' campaign which is asking all those big brands capitalising off of queer people whilst not making things ethically who is actually making their clothes, and how they're going to do better to protect LGBTQ+ people in their supply chains.
