    Does anyone know a good place to get pride gear/merchandise?

    I really want to get a bi pride bracelet and some other stuff.

    There are all kinds of places but I'd try to find something queer-owned if possible. I did a search and didn't find any bracelets, but here's one LGBTQIA2S+ owned selection of bi-pride merch. I hope that helps! I'd also love to know if anyone has a preferred shop or if anyone makes anything themselves that we could support.

    Etsy is definitely a great place to start! As a gentle reminder, I appreciate the thought of wanting to support the shops' of fellow members, but someone sharing their own store is against the Code of Conduct.

    I checked out Pride Palace and it doesn't seem like there is much bi pride stuff to choose from. I think I might get their bi pride flag though!

    I’ve also found it challenging to find bi pride stuff. I couldn’t find a bi symbol bracelet in the style I wanted so I ended up getting a LGBTQI+ one instead. For someone who has NEVER been interested in body art I’m actually starting to reconsider.

    It sure is! I hope I'll find something I really like eventually. I've found some really cute and simply string bracelets that are braided with the bi colors that I think I might get for now.

    Found this Bi Pride mug as well -- I'll probably stop posting things, but now every time I see something I think of you @BiBoyToy!

    Thank you so much, @Lesbee! That NSYNC inspired bi pride shirt is hilarious! I love the mug and other shirt as well! I think I might get the mug and one of the shirts.

    Awhh! <3 Feel free to share other cute bi pride gear you find! :slight_smile:

    That's wonderful. I wish I had a store in my community that was great for LGBTQ+ gear!

    I bought a cool rainbow hat from an online store called Pride Shack.

    I would be happy to make you a woven bracelet, but I can't disclose any personal info. :upside_down:

    I'm a big advocate for supporting individuals and small scale queer owned operations. As cool as it is to see pride merch turning up in more and more places, I'm hesitant to buy from big name stores who capitalize on rainbows for 1 month out of the year, especially knowing that I can get cooler and more diverse stuff from other LGBT+ creators. A lot of independent queer makers are out there on social media! Instagram is actually a really nice platform for this sort of thing - lots of pictures and easy contact, and it gives people who aren't on bigger collective selling platforms like etsy a place to show what they're selling and link to their shops.

    Post-plague, you might want to check out your local pride events. Ours always features local independent makers who are more than happy to give out their contact info for future orders.

    This! If you go to a pride festival, take time to walk through the area with vendor booths.

    I also got a pride shirt at a Khols store a couple years ago.
