Welcome to the San Francisco Leather Pride Contingent! We are a contingent representing the many facets of the San Francisco Bay Area’s Leather and Kink Culture. We invite all leather, kink and fetish organizations and individuals to join us on June 26th for the San Francisco Pride Parade & Celebration, "Love Will Keep Us Together"
The Leather Community has a proud tradition of participating in the San Francisco Pride Parade. In 1999, under the leadership of Robert Davolt we united the many groups to form the Leather Pride Contingent. People clad in leather have been in every pride celebration not only here but in almost all pride celebrations throughout the world.
We walk each year to honor those that have come before us and to show the world that it is okay to be kinky, there is many of us just like you. The Leather Contingent is always one of the most memorable groups in the parade, the sound of our whips cracking heard from blocks away and our Leather Marshals being pulled by human ponies consistently makes us one of the most recognizable and talked about groups in the parade
The Leather Culture has a proud tradition of mentoring our next generation and I personally would like to thank Jay Hemphill and Michael Holeman for extending this opportunity to me. It is a true honor to continue the legacy of the San Francisco Leather Pride Contingent and I look forward to seeing you all at the parade.
With Love and Leather,
Jason Husted
Chairman
San Francisco Leather Pride
Robert Davolt, united the Leather Community and formed the San Francisco Leather Contingent, in the San Francisco Pride Parade, one of the largest units in the world’s largest Pride Parade.
He was selected as the 19th San Francisco Leather Daddy. He has served on the Board of Directors of the Leather Archives & Museum (LA&M) in Chicago, traveling to dozens of cities every year as a teacher, lecturer, radio commentator, fundraiser, contest judge and guest of communities throughout the United States, Canada and Europe.
The San Francisco Leather Contingent Banner (above), is dedicated to Robert Davolt and all of those who made an impact in Jay and Michael's life as they began their journey from the shadows.
We invite you to visit our special tribute page dedicated to Robert, view some of his articles and reminisce on our Contingent Founder.
