FlyQuest unveiled on Tuesday the first serious line of esports apparel designed by and for women.
The FlyQuest Women’s Flightwear line is comprised of a sports bra, leggings, crop hoodie, lounge shorts, baseball tee, and crop top. The items were designed by women in the FlyQuest organization, led by COO Tricia Sugita.
“We are truly excited to unveil our very first line of women’s merch,” Sugita said. “We started this project last year because we wanted to give more choices to women in esports. Every piece in this line has been designed from the ground up by the women of FlyQuest for women who want to feel comfortable and confident in what they wear to express themselves.”
FlyQuest, which sponsors League of Legends and Fortnite teams, was founded in 2017 and is relatively new to the esports industry. But it’s made a name for sharp sponsorship deals. In creating the women’s apparel line, FlyQuest also partnered with Women for Women International, a nonprofit that seeks to help marginalized women in countries affected by war and conflict.
FlyQuest will donate 50 percent of all net profits to Women for Women International. FlyQuest will also support five women in a yearlong training program that focuses on vocational and business skills, health education, and emotional and social support.
FlyQuest Women’s Flightwear will go on sale on May 24 at 2pm CT on the FlyQuest website.
