A New Way to Show Your Royal Spirit
Disney style is taking a sporty turn this season with the debut of a brand-new collection of football jerseys now available at the Disney Store. This lineup features high-quality athletic apparel inspired by three beloved animated classics: Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, and Hercules. These jerseys don’t just celebrate the characters; they pay homage to the legacy of the films themselves by featuring their original theatrical release years prominently in the design.
The 1950 Collection: Cinderella and Prince Charming
For fans of the film that started the Silver Age of Disney animation, the 1950 collection offers two distinct looks. The Cinderella jersey is styled in a classic light blue with gray and white striped V-neck trim. It features the heroine’s name in flowing script on the chest, accompanied by a glass slipper graphic. The back displays the number 50 and a full graphic of Cinderella in her iconic ball gown.
The Prince Charming jersey provides a striking contrast, featuring a white base with a pale blue shoulder yoke and red-and-gold striped trim. This piece uses a mix of collegiate lettering and script, making it a perfect choice for couples looking for a coordinated park outfit. Both jerseys are priced at $69.99.
The 1991 Collection: Belle and Beast
Stepping into the 90s, the Beauty and the Beast jerseys capture the essence of the characters through bold color blocking. The Belle jersey utilizes a white and yellow color palette with a rose graphic on the front, while the back features the number 91 to mark the film’s release.
The Beast jersey is a deep royal blue with gold-toned accents. In a fun nod to the film’s supporting cast, a small graphic of Lumiere sits on the left shoulder. The jagged dark script for the “Beast” logo gives this piece a slightly more rugged, athletic feel compared to the more delicate script on the Belle version. These are also available for $69.99 each.
The 1997 Collection: Hercules and Megara
Perhaps the most requested addition to Disney’s apparel lineup lately has been more representation for Hercules. This new drop delivers with two stylized jerseys inspired by the 1997 film. The Hercules jersey features powder blue fabric with burgundy and gold athletic striping, mirroring the hero’s own color palette.
The Megara jersey stands out with a unique light pink and purple design. It features her name in collegiate lettering with a burgundy shadow and a small flower detail above the text. Like the rest of the collection, these jerseys include the film’s release year, 97, on the sleeves and back. Collectors can find these online for $69.99.
Planning Pro-Tips for Your Next Trip
- Sizing Matters: Football jerseys are traditionally cut larger than standard t-shirts to allow for a relaxed, athletic fit. Consider sizing down if you prefer a more tailored look for your park photos.
- Perfect for Groups: With both hero and heroine options available for three different films, these are excellent for families or friends who want to coordinate without wearing identical shirts.
- Stay Cool: The athletic mesh and V-neck styling make these a breathable alternative to heavy cotton tees during the warmer months at Disney’s Hollywood Studios or the Magic Kingdom.
A Touchdown for Disney Fans
Whether you’re heading to the parks or just want to represent your favorite characters at home, these jerseys offer a sophisticated blend of sports culture and Disney nostalgia. By focusing on the release years and character-specific iconography, Disney has created a collection that feels like authentic fan gear. You can find the entire collection online now at the Disney Store.
