Los Angeles-based streetwear imprint Teddy Fresh works in collaboration with Care Bears to work on a joint collection of nostalgic pieces. The capsule is made up of 30 pieces in total, offering selections for men and women. The classic streetwear pieces are detailed with the iconic cartoon characters.
The original Care Bears animated series launched in the 80s and brings a nostalgic feel with its dreamy color palette and prints that nod to the franchise. The wearables are made from premium materials and carefully curates the hues. The brand's CEO and Founder Hila Klein states, "Care Bears represent something so innocent and honest. In particular, the Teddy Fresh team loves the graphics from the earlier animated series with the hand-made watercolor feel. We tried to capture that look in the denim and all-over prints."
