The team's colors

There's a shirt you own that isn't really a shirt. A band tee. A jersey. Something that tells anyone who knows that you're one of them.

That's what this is.

Pride Riot isn't Pride merchandise. Pride merchandise faces outward — it's built so other people can see that you support something. Ours faces inward. It's for the ones who'd recognize it. Every shirt out there makes the next person wearing one a little less alone.

We don't please. We are.

If a design was made to make someone comfortable, we don't make it. We're not asking for approval. We're not softening it for a wider audience. We're not putting out one collection in June and going quiet for eleven months.

In-your-face love. That's the whole thing.

Who it's for

Every misfit. If you already decided to hate, you picked your side — go find your approval somewhere else.

There's no ally lane here, and there never will be. Bands don't have allies, they have fans. Fans wear the same shirt as everyone else. Loving it is the membership. The shirt never asks who you are.

How it's made

Every piece is made to order. Nothing gets printed until someone buys it, so we never sit on stock nobody wanted. That is a fact about how we operate, not a measurement of waste.

Soft blanks, ring-spun cotton. Things we'd actually wear all day — not a stiff shirt with a logo slapped on it. The hoodie blank is the Stanley/Stella Cruiser 2.0: Stanley/Stella states 80% organic cotton, 20% recycled polyester, 350 gsm. We name every blank by manufacturer and model in Made in the Open, along with the words we won't put on a shirt and why.

Queer owned & operated

Independent. One of us. No corporation in a costume.
