At Nova Edge Threads, we're on a mission to create unapologetic, modern pride merch that celebrates the diversity of our community. As a queer-owned brand, we value inclusivity and give consideration- which includes our approach to sizing and pricing.
The top two size-inclusive products we have are 1) Relaxed Fit T-Shirt, the classic pride shirts available in sizes XS to 5XL and 2) Relaxed Fit Zip-Hoodie, in sizes S to 5XL, without any additional charges for extended sizing. We firmly believe that everyone deserves access to tools that help them feel empowered, seen, and celebrated. Plus size clothing shouldn't come at a higher cost just because of your body size.
Understanding Size Inclusivity
Size inclusivity is about more than just offering a wide range of sizes. It's about creating a space where all bodies are valued, respected, and represented. Too often, the fashion industry has perpetuated harmful standards that exclude and marginalize individuals who don't fit into a narrow, eurocentric ideal.
At Nova Edge Threads, we're celebrate the beauty and diversity of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. We know that representation matters, and that seeing yourself reflected in the clothes you wear can be a powerful, affirming experience.
Our Philosophy on Pricing
Many brands charge more for extended sizes, citing increased manufacturing costs. But we believe that this practice is fundamentally flawed. It places an undue financial burden on those who already face systemic discrimination and barriers to accessing affirming, high-quality apparel.
That's why we've made the conscious decision to keep our pricing consistent across all sizes. We believe that Pride merchandise should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their budget or body type. By offering inclusive sizing in budget friendly pride apparel, we're able to empower more individuals to express their identity and celebrate their pride.
Yes, Production Costs Can Be Higher—But That’s On Us
We won’t pretend that making a wider range of sizes is always cost-neutral. Designs need to be adjusted, more fabric might be required, and manufacturing can be more complex. But we see those challenges as part of our responsibility, not something to pass on to you. Everyone deserves to feel confident, represented, and respected in what they wear. No one should be made to feel ashamed for their body size, shape or color. Our decision to keep pricing consistent across sizes reflects our commitment to that ideal.
Community Impact
This approach is a reflection of our core values and priorities. By making pride clothing for a range of body types, we're able to connect to and be of service to more people within the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Pride without limits means plus size fashion. We're building inclusivity into the way we do business—not as an afterthought or an upsell. We believe that values come first and want to connect with other's who have the same values.
So whether you're shopping for yourself or someone you love, you can rest assured that your purchase is supporting a QT owned business whose dedicated to continual improvement in the area of accessibility. Together, we can continue to break down barriers, challenge harmful norms, and build a brand that delivers fashionable plus size clothing where more people can proudly and unapologetically express their identity.
Appreciate your love and support
