'Back the Blue' is a public awareness campaign designed and dedicated to displaying public support for law enforcement throughout the United States.
The Iowa Chapter is "Iowa Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.)". They assist surviving families and affected co-workers of law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.
Everyday, police men and women pin on their badges and risk their lives to protect and preserve our freedoms here at home. They continually encounter dangerous situations and keep us safe in ways we will never know. We recognize that this dedication takes a toll on their, as well as their families, lives. We want to show our appreciation and in a small way thank them for the job that they do.
'Back the Blue' Collection
We were approached by our law enforcement friends who like our MERICA jersey and wanted to enhance that design to show support for law enforcement.
The 'Back the Blue' collection consists of a Cycling Cap, Crew Shirt, Men's Jersey, Women's Jersey or Women's Gemini Tank Top. View the whole collection HERE.
Donations
BIKEIOWA will donate $15 from each 'Back the Blue' jersey/crew shirt sold, and $5 from every 'Back the Blue' cycling cap sold to Iowa C.O.P.S.. THANKS to Primal Wear Inc for making our design a reality and supporting this cause.
Who can purchase apparel from the 'Back the Blue' Collection?
The designs were created for law enforcement, but anyone can purchase and wear these designs to show your public support.
