Oregon State Leather ContesT August 9, 2025

Badlands Portland

Oregon State Leather Contest 2025
Saturday, August 9th | Badlands PDX
Part of Oregon Leather Pride Week

Join us for an unforgettable celebration of strength, solidarity, and sensuality at the Oregon State Leather Contest 2025. This year, we're centering connection, community, and camaraderie—because in times like these, it’s more vital than ever to come together in love, laughter, and play.

As part of Oregon Leather Pride Week, we’re bringing the play back to our spaces—literally. From cigar socials and engaging workshops to the thrill of Leather Vegas and the joy of kinky bingo, the week is packed with events that honor our heritage, our kinks, and our chosen family.

Then, on August 9th, join us at Badlands PDX for the main event: the Oregon State Leather Contest. Come support our contestants, celebrate our outgoing titleholders, and help us welcome a bold new class into the Oregon State Leather legacy.

You deserve this. Take a break, embrace your community, and let yourself play.

We can't wait to see you there.
In love and leather,
The Oregon State Leather Contest Board of Directors
