We all know that Grindr’s a one-stop-shop for gay and bi guys to get their rocks off but what you might not be aware of is that the app is expanding. It doesn’t just offer men a safer alternative to cruising – it’s been selling premium tickets to Nicki Minaj and Madonna concerts and now has just dropped its first full-blown fashion line. The Varsity Collection is a collaboration with the printing design studio Print All Over Me, comprised of 29 separate pieces of sportswear, from brightly coloured, tight-fitting t-shirts to high-cut shorts and swimming trunks.
