As the month of June arrives, a lot of businesses will begin to showcase their Pride assortments and initiatives. Nike stepped in the celebrations with its apparel lineup, which offers hoodies, t-shirts, and shorts.

The Nike Be True collection for summer 2022 raises awareness for communities and encourages all athletes to be proud of being themselves. Beyond the original rainbow, the product's designs combine a wide range of colors to highlight the LGBTQIA2S+ community's differing views.

The tie-dye hoodies are adorned with distinct shades of navy, gray, soft pink, and sky blue. These outerwear pieces are embellished with “Be True” letterings on the chest, which are accompanied by a Pride colors swoosh underneath.

Similar softer hues of navy, pink, blue, and gray can also be seen on the collection's tees. The crewneck tees are also embroidered with similar Be True letterings and swoosh insignias on the chest.

The third are activewear shorts, which are offered in black, gray, and white, and emblazoned with emblems like the other apparel pieces.

Be ready! For “Be True” arriving on June 22.

The Nike Be True Dunk Low is one of the collection's footwear, which boasts rainbow-colored elements on the white sneakers, including "Be True" embroidery along the sidewalls, as well as multicolored Nike tabs on the rear ends and tongue. The laces also add a splash of colour, with pink laces on one shoe and blue laces on the other.

The white overlay also has a hidden surprise: it will perhaps wear away, revealing bright patches of green, yellow, orange, and red highlights.

The Nike Be True Cortez is another shoe that adds a splash of color to the renowned Nike footwear. The sneakers possess light blue laces and a white foundation with a tiered, colorful swoosh tone. Both children's and adult sizes will be offered in the Be True style.

Nike's Pride collection also incorporates sandals. Colorful straps, a white footbed, and a black mottled sole distinguishes the Oneonta sandal.
