30+ Fashion Items That Celebrate Pride *and* Give Back
Happy Pride! Here are more than 30 ways to shop while supporting the LGBTQIA+ community.
Pride Month 2021 is upon us — and while you’ve been gearing up for all of the virtual events taking place, we curated a lineup of Pride-ready clothing and accessories that not only look fab, but have a charitable element to them. (We did the same for beauty products that give back for Pride, too.) Consider shopping from brands that have partnered with organizations like the Marsha P. Johnson Institute, which defends the human rights of Black transgender people, or The Trevor Project, a leading organization that provides crisis intervention and suicide prevention to LGBTQIA+ youth.
If you want to explore on your own and make a positive impact on LGBTQIA+ business owners, check out Shopify’s curated list of small businesses in conjunction with the Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative. Through the Shopify Shop app you can discover and shop from over 50 merchants like The Little Gay Shop and Play Out, and directly support the queer community.
Looking for rainbow-adorned shoes to replace your beat up Vans? We’ve got you covered. Searching for colourful accessories to jazz up your summer outfits? Look no further. Browse the gallery below for our full roundup of clothing and accessories brands that are giving back this Pride Month 2021.

Sarah Mariotti is a Toronto-based writer curious about fashion, spatial design, and ordinary human stories. When she’s not glued to her Kindle or writing about the next best earrings to hit the market, she’s putting on a pair of tortoise shades and ALD x New Balance sneaks and going for a nature walk — because a mentor and editor once told her that good ideas are always on the other side of a walk.
