Ahead of the Pride Month in June, [American Eagle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ae-foundation) has released the AE x It Gets Better collection in partnership with the It Gets Better Project. 100% of the proceeds from all sales will be donated to support the non-profit organization and its mission.

The AE x It Gets Better Pride collection introduces 14 expressive styles with phrases like "Super Gay" and "Gayer Than Gay" across t-shirts, hoodies, tank tops, hats and other accessories. The accessibly priced summer clothing collection makes it easy for all to show their support for the [LGBTQ](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/petsmart-pride-collection) community during Pride Month and beyond.

While all of the pieces are especially appropriate for [Pride Month celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/celebratingyou-campaign), styles like the Love is Love Hoodie have the potential to help carry the collection's meaningful message throughout other seasons.
