For Pride Month in June, activewear brand K-DEER is introducing limited-edition striped leggings to celebrate World Pride, the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising and the LGBTQ+ community. The new rainbow legging styles are the newest additions to K-DEER's Signature Stripe collection and the different styles reference the vivid colors of the LGBTQ+ flag.
The rainbow-colored striped leggings are offered in full-length, 7/8 length, capri and kids styles, each of which is named after yoga teacher Dana Trixie Flynn of Laughing Lotus Yoga Centers. For the utmost comfort, all of the styles avoid the use of an outside leg seam for a chafe-free experience. 5% of the e-commerce sales from each pair will go towards supporting the Hetrick Martin Institute, an organization that supports LGBTQ youth.
