We don’t just design clothes—we show up. From boardwalks to bear weekends, Sticky Sweet Bears sponsors fundraisers, designs exclusive event capsules, and stands proudly with our community. Dancing, laughing, and living out loud, every event is our commitment to love, visibility, and togetherness—making our presence impossible to miss.
Sticky Sweet Bears is proud to be a cruise sponsor of Bears on Deck 2026—a high-seas celebration of bear culture and queer joy aboard the Celebrity Apex. This year’s lineup features drag icon Jackie Beat, powerhouse Stacy Layne Matthews, and the electrifying Ava Clear.
Sailing from Port Canaveral with stops in Key West, Bimini, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel, Bears on Deck is more than a cruise—it’s community in motion: shows, dance floors, and connections that last long after the ship docks.
Bears. Drag. Ocean views. Sponsored by Sticky Sweet Bears.
Our $1K donation during Callen-Lorde’s 25th Annual Community Health Awards event help raise over $900K+ for gender-affirming care and queer dignity.
We may still be a small brand finding our footing, but giving back has always been part of who we are.

Still gagged! Seeing Mariah Paris Balenciaga wear our Asbury Park AF tank to the polls this year was wild and humbling.
Moments like this remind us why visibility — and voice — matter. 💜

Our first pop-up market day was crazy wonderful — seeing folks try things on, and light up with joy was pure magic.
Even better? Spotting people wearing our pieces all over Ptown — at happy hours, parties, and late-night hangs — that’s the dream.
We’re so proud to have been part of NorthEast Ursamen’s Spooky Bear 2025 in Provincetown, joining the Bear Marketplace and contributing to a tradition that uplifts and gives back through the AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod and other vital causes.

Proudly donated a complete Side Tease Button Down set from the Plaid & Patterns collection for charity auction.
The spirited bidding helped raise funds for causes close to our hearts to support local organizations including Special Delivery San Diego, VIDA, North County LGBTQIA Resource Center’s Humanity Showers Project, Trans Lifeline, and Rainbow Spaces.

Founders Edwin and Jason joined the Hampton Tea Dance to celebrate, connect, and give back—the event raising over $200K for Callen-Lorde Community Health Center.
Callen-Lorde provides affirming healthcare for LGBTQ+ communities, offering everything from primary care and mental health services to gender-affirming and HIV care—regardless of ability to pay.
This year’s Tea Dance was a reminder that when we gather in joy, we also fuel the care our community deserves.
