When does the Bobby Kim x Disney Classics apparel collection drop and where can you buy it?

The Bobby Kim x Disney Classics apparel capsule drops in August 2026, with the launch window in mid-August ahead of the back-to-school fit cycle. Distribution is split between The Hundreds flagship, the Disney Store online, and a small rotation of streetwear stockists including Bodega, Union, and Concepts. The capsule is the first in a planned ongoing partnership between Bobby Kim and Disney Consumer Products, which sets a longer sell-through arc than a one-off merch tie-in.

What is the flagship piece of the Bobby Kim x Disney Classics capsule?

The flagship is a heavyweight 240-gsm ringspun cotton Sorcerer Mickey graphic tee reprinting archival 1930s Disney linework from the Disney Animation Research Library. The print is single-ink matte black on bone white, screen printed at 230-mesh rather than DTG, and placed at roughly 11-inch centred chest. The line art is archival rather than redrawn, which is the part of the capsule that distinguishes it from sneaker-led and anime-led licensing drops of the same season.

Why does screen printing beat DTG for archival Disney linework on the Sorcerer Mickey tee?

The Sorcerer Mickey archival line art uses roughly 8-point line weights at 1:1 scale, at the resolution edge of direct-to-garment printing. DTG rasterises line art at 1,200 dpi and drops the smallest strokes first when the raster engine rounds line ends. Screen printing at 230-mesh holds the same 8-point line weight without rasterisation because the line is the mesh opening. Screen-printed matte black ink also holds the linework across 60+ wash cycles — DTG ink loses the smallest strokes by wash 15.

How does the Bobby Kim x Disney Classics capsule differ from sneaker-led and anime-led 2026 drops?

The capsule is the first high-profile 2026 example of a streetwear founder — Bobby Kim, founder of The Hundreds — taking a legacy animation archive and printing it through his own label, rather than a sneaker brand attaching itself to a film anniversary (Jordan Space Jam 30th, August 2026) or an anime IP licensing directly to a streetwear label (Genshin x Crunchyroll, August 2026). The archival linework comes from the Disney Animation Research Library rather than being redrawn, which gives the capsule a different fidelity than sneaker- and anime-led drops of the same season.
