Target's Pride Collection Underwhelms: TikToker's Review Sparks Debate

Target's 2025 Pride Collection Receives Mixed Reactions: A Review from CALVN Target's annual Pride collection has launched, but not without criticism. A recent video review by TikToker CALVN (@calvngaming) highlights concerns about the limited selection and placement of items within the store. Filmed at a Target store in the US, the video shows a relatively small display of Pride merchandise tucked away near the clearance section. "They literally put it by the clearance section," CALVN comments in the video, expressing disappointment. The review details several items, including t-shirts with rainbow designs and a dog toy labeled "Proud Pup." CALVN questions the overall design choices, stating, "What is authentic about a white t-shirt?" The video also highlights the placement of Kate Spade merchandise, suggesting a lack of focus on the Pride collection. The video's conclusion shows CALVN leaving the store, stating they do not support Target's approach to Pride. While Target has aimed to celebrate Pride with this collection, the video underscores the need for thoughtful and visible representation in retail spaces. The feedback from CALVN's video provides valuable insight into consumer expectations for Pride merchandise and the importance of inclusive marketing.
