**New York, NY –** Gap and Disney are taking their longstanding partnership to a new level with a limited-edition collection featuring classic Mickey & Friends characters in a collegiate-inspired style. The “Gap x Disney Collegiate” collection, launching Tuesday, brings a fresh and elevated twist to the classic Gap x Disney line.
The collection features a range of apparel and accessories for the entire family, boasting a ’90s varsity feel with patchwork prints, preppy colors, and collegiate fonts. Highlights include a Denim Big Shirt with the full Mickey & Friends cast on the back and embroidered detailing, matching fleece sets, and mix-and-match denim styles with unique Disney prints.
“We are continuing to build upon our longstanding relationship with Gap by fusing our creative energies to deliver a more stylized product offering,” said Paul Gitter, executive vice president of global brand commercialization at Disney Consumer Products. “The Mickey & Friends Collegiate Collection blends Disney’s iconic characters with timeless Gap style, creating must-have looks.”
To celebrate the launch, Gap and Disney will host a fan fest experience at the Georgia vs. Alabama football game this Saturday.
The collection, available in adult, kid, toddler, and baby sizes, will be sold in select stores and online at gap.com. It will be available at Gap U.S. stores in Orlando, Times Square, Honolulu, San Francisco, and Grove at Farmers Market in Los Angeles.
“It has been inspiring to bring two powerful brands together to create the Gap x Disney Collegiate collection,” said Fabiola Torres, chief marketing officer of Gap. “This drop presents the next phase in our collaboration and offers looks for the whole family that champion original style.”
The launch of this collection comes as Gap Inc. continues to show signs of improvement, reporting a strong second quarter with a 5% increase in net sales and a significant rise in net income.
