About Us
Nova Edge™ Threads, STREETWEAR THAT GIVES™
At Nova Edge Threads, we create streetwear that celebrates LGBTQIA2S+ pride through bold, unapologetic designs. We sell wearable tools for pride, protest and unapologetic self-expression. We center LGBTQIA2S+ identities, uplift marginalized communities, and design for those who live outside the lines — because that’s where real beauty, power, and transformation exist.
What We Stand For
We’re not here to chase trends or gatekeep fashion. We’re here to build a bold, genderless, radically inclusive brand that reflects the people who wear it. Our designs are inspired by our community — queer, disabled, neurodivergent, BIPOC, Two-Spirit, and proud — and we focus on inclusivity and intersectionality. Unlike other streetwear brands, we're about accessibility over exclusivity.
We keep our pricing transparent and our packaging simple — because we're focused on what really matters, unique designs and solid donations. When you shop Nova Edge, you’re not just buying clothes — you’re supporting a movement.
Community First
We give back — not because it’s trendy, but because it’s non-negotiable. 10% of all profits are donated to organizations led by and serving LGBTQIA2S+ folks, People with Disabilities and chronically illness and People of the Global Majority (Black, Indigenous, and people of color communities).
Our Vibe
Unapologetic. Intersectional. Revolutionary.
Nova Edge Threads is where streetwear meets resistance, pride meets protest, and identity becomes armor. The vibe is bold but intentional — dark aesthetics layered with flashes of color and powerful symbolism.
The energy is gritty but hopeful. Soft but strong. Radical but rooted in care.
It’s streetwear that feels like grassroots among concrete blocks, a late-night moon-lit rooftop conversation, a love letter to chosen family — all stitched together in one fit.
Our streetwear is designed to be armor and expression all at once — a way to show up in the world fully as you are. These aren’t just clothes — they’re a way to let your light shine through.
What's behind the name
Nova Edge Threads is more than a brand name — it’s a declaration of unapologetic energy, a celebration of intersectional identity, a movement, and (hopefully) the future.
"Nova" comes from the cosmic phenomenon — a nova is a star that bursts into sudden brightness, outshining everything around it. It symbolizes rebirth, radiant power and expansion. At Nova Edge Threads, "Nova" represents the light within the people who are part of marginalized communities — the queer, trans, disabled, BIPOC — shining fiercely in a world that too often tries to dim them. It’s about the brightness and power in pride. A visual metaphor for stunning queer emergence. It represents the brilliance that comes from owning who you are — even (and especially) when the world tells you not to.
"Edge" speaks to the raw, unapologetic side of survival and resistance. Edge is the raw truth of living at the margins. At Nova Edge Threads, "Edge" represents the grit, defiance, and radical honesty of our communities. The edge is sharp, it's about refusing to be polished or palatable for a world that was never built for us. It’s the boldness to show up, stand out, and resist. It's about transformation, evolution of self and community.
"Threads" ties it all together — literally and symbolically. A nod to the source material and slang for the pride pieces we wear to express ourselves. At Nova Edge Threads, "Threads" represents the community connections that are everything. Linking us to each other, through time and space, to our chosen families. Every thread stitched into your clothing honors our queer-trans-BIPIC-disabled ancestors, celebrates our modern pride and protest and joy.
Nova is the light. Edge is the fight. Nova Edge Threads is both.
Nova energy is the hope, the community care, the vision for collective liberation where every identity is not just tolerated, but celebrated like it's the future that it is.
What's behind the Logo
The Nova Edge Threads logo includes the balance of Nova and Edge with Threads. Text front and center across a circle of mosaic geometric design. It’s a sigil of queer community power, transformation, and resistance. Clean and geometric, yet loaded with meaning.
A symbol of defiance that holds tension — soft curves vs. hard angles — echoing the lived experiences of those who exist in the margins. It’s minimalist, but not neutral. Clean, but not quiet. This is intentional design for an unapologetic life.
Our wordmark (below) has our emblem in the front. It's a visual nod to the intersectionality of our lives, a symbol of resistance where communities connect in formation, an abstracted version of N.E.T.
Stay Curious. Stay Connected.
