About Pink Pony Chub

Pink Pony Chub was born from a lifetime of being told - directly and indirectly - that certain bodies weren’t meant to be seen, celebrated, or dressed loudly.

Hi, I’m Jake: owner, creative director, and the chaotic brain behind Pink Pony Chub.

For most of my life, I struggled with self-image. I wanted clothes that felt fun, bold, sexy, and unapologetic - and every time I went looking, the options were the same:
either nothing in my size, or something that was ugly, joyless, and wildly overpriced. I got tired of being grateful for scraps. I wanted statements. I wanted attitude. I wanted clothes that said I’m here.

So I started making them myself.

Pink Pony Chub is a love letter to bigger bodies, louder voices, and people who refuse to shrink - physically, emotionally, or culturally. It’s inspired by my deep love for New Orleans, where self-expression is sacred, joy is communal, and nobody asks you to tone it down. Add in my obsession with pop culture, travel, storytelling, and my dog (who is absolutely the real boss), and you get a brand that lives somewhere between camp, comfort, and confrontation.

At its core, Pink Pony Chub is about inclusion - and not just in size.

We believe inclusion means:

  • Bodies of all shapes and sizes

  • Cultures, traditions, and lived experiences

  • Emotions - joy, rage, softness, grief, humor, pride

  • Ideas that challenge norms and start conversations

Everything I create is intentional. I care deeply about quality, fit, and design - because nobody should have to choose between expression and comfort. Every piece is made with the goal of connecting: to a place, a feeling, a moment, or a message that matters.

Pink Pony Chub exists to:
✨ Make people feel seen
✨ Start conversations
✨ Send messages (sometimes subtle, sometimes loud as hell)
✨ Celebrate people, places, and things that deserve space

This brand is for anyone who’s ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or edited out - and decided to show up anyway.

Welcome to Pink Pony Chub.
You belong here. 💖🐎✨
