Nike is getting gay.
Following in the footsteps of its Black History Month collection is BETRUE, a line inspired solely by the LGBTQ+ community.

“The 2016 BETRUE collection, inspired by the LGBT community, represents this conviction and commitment, pairing two prominent symbols of pride: the rainbow flag and pink triangle,” Nike said in a statement.
Of course, this isn't Nike's first foray into the world of LGBT. The brand has, in the past few years, been a staunch supporter of LGBT rights. It even was a handful of U.S. corporations supporting 2015's Equality Act.
The BETRUE line has been around for years as well, and promises to sponsor organizations to include the LGBT community with sales of the products.
To get your own BETRUE Nikes, head over to Nike.com or in stores everywhere on June 9.
