When creating RCREW, our mission was to build a way for our community to connect and celebrate showing our true colours. We believe in Pride, visibility, and providing the freedom to find and share safe spaces—whether in your own home, at a friend’s, or in an LGBTQ+ establishment.
While we strive for a world where every space is safe, we acknowledge that we unfortunately do not live in a perfect world. Your safety is, and must always remain, our highest priority.
Our signalling bracelets were designed to allow LGBT+ people the ability to quietly show their pride and find one another. However, we are also aware that wearing your RCREW signalling bracelets may not always be the safest thing to do.
The ultimate decision to wear your bracelet rests entirely with you. If you ever feel unsafe, threatened, or uncomfortable, your immediate action is simple and vital:
If you do not feel safe in any environment, immediately remove your bracelet and put it in your pocket. Your safety is always the priority.
We encourage you to use your RCREW bracelet as a tool for connection, but only when you have assessed your personal risk.
Trust Your Instincts and Judgment:
Listen to your gut. If you find yourself in a space—private or public—where you feel uneasy or unsafe, trust that feeling and take action immediately.
Do not feel pressured to "out" yourself. In situations where you know or feel like a person may not be safe to be around (including family, friends, or strangers), you never need to share your queer identity. Education is important, but your safety comes first.
The World is Not Uniform. Remember that acceptance varies greatly. While some western countries are more accepting, non-acceptance is still a reality, and caution is always advised.
Your Identity is Still Valid, Even If You Can’t Come Out
Unfortunately, not everyone will be privileged to show their true colours openly. Please do not let the necessity of caution stop you from claiming your identity in your heart.
Whether you choose to wear one of our signalling bracelets or keep it in your pocket, always remember that: You are still part of this family, and your identity remains 100% valid, no matter what your visibility level is.
Choking Hazard: RCREW bracelets contain small beads and parts. They are not suitable for young children and may pose a choking hazard. Please keep out of reach of infants and toddlers.
Materials: Our bracelets use gemstone, plastic and metal alloy beads. Discontinue use immediately if you experience any skin irritation or suspect an allergic reaction.
RCREW signalling bracelets are proudly offered as tools for visibility and community connection. They are designed to be removed and concealed quickly when safety is a concern.
By purchasing and wearing this product, the wearer accepts full and personal responsibility for assessing their environment and personal safety in any public or private setting. RCREW cannot be held responsible for the actions of others or the wearer's choice to display their identity.
