LGBTQAI+ RIGHTS ARE NOT OPTIONAL.

Our Freakshow Jeans were designed to honor the LGBTQ+ community, drag performers, and those fighting for queer equality throughout the United States. 30% of profits from every purchase of Freakshow Jeans will be donated directly to “The Drag Defense Fund” in support of the ACLU’s LGBTQ+ rights project.

Each pair of Freakshow Jeans is upcycled from high quality hand sourced vintage Levi’s® and preloved scrubs once worn by healthcare professionals in the New York State area. 

Designed, sourced, and hand-reworked locally in New York. 12+ hours of sustainable and ethical production go into the process of upcycling each pair. Our Freakshow Jeans are truly works of wearable art.

Each pair of Freakshow Jeans is one of a kind. The patterns and colors of the patches will vary from jean to jean, however, your pair will have a similar wash, pattern placement, and silhouette to the jeans shown in the photos.
