This is the meaning behind Old Navy's purple Fourth of July shirts

Old Navy Celebrates 25 Years of Belonging With Plans for a Purple 4th of July.

ATLANTA — Old Navy is celebrating America's birthday and the company's 25th anniversary with a purple Independence Day shirt to remind people we are not "red" and "blue" and we're stronger when we come together.

Officials with the company said in a news release that the purple shirt is "a salute to what unites us," by demonstrating what happens when red, white and blue join forces.

Only 1,994 purple Flag Tees will be sold. This commemorates the company’s 1994 birth date.

These range from the company’s Pride shirts to honoring International Women’s Day and more.
