In celebration of Pride Month this June, Nike said that the pride collection was inspired by the idea that “sport can be the setting of radical inclusivity.”
The brand offers a range of LGBTQIA+ footwear and apparel collection that includes a Velcro patch of each item, which includes nine flags of LGBTQIA+ such as the Modern Pride Flag, Pansexual Flag, and Transgender Flag.
