Cloudco Entertainment and Adidas Originals have launched a Care Bears collection spanning kids’ and adults’ footwear, apparel, and accessories.
The collection brings the world of Care-A-Lot to adidas Originals’ iconic silhouettes, from the adiStar Control 5 and Adilette slides to the Spezial and Samba, alongside apparel heroes.
The footwear lineup reimagines the adidas Originals Adilette slide with a plush Care Bear fixed to the strap. Unique colorways are inspired by fan-favorite characters such as Funshine Bear, Cheer Bear, and Grumpy Bear. The adiStar Control 5 is dressed in pink and blue, with metallic Three Stripes and embroidered Star Buddy patches, while the adidas Originals Spezial picks up its own Care Bears makeover across two additional colorways. Detailing across the kids’ footwear includes adidas Originals Samba OG and Campus styles finished with Care Bears charms featuring Share Bear, plus a pair of Superstars with light-up soles.
On the apparel side, the collection includes classic logo short- and long-sleeved T-shirts, hooded cardigans with Care Bears ears, denim jeans featuring Care-A-Lot-inspired patches, and matching infant sets. The accessories include a faux-fur Share Bear bucket hat with pompom ears. Bags and socks round out the line in matching colorways.
“Care Bears and adidas Originals both have a rare ability to connect across generations while continuing to feel fresh, expressive, and culturally relevant,” said Robert Prinzo, Head of Global Licensing, Cloudco Entertainment. “This collaboration brings those worlds together in a way that feels playful, nostalgic, and design-led, creating a defining moment for Care Bears as the brand heads into its 45th anniversary.”
The Care Bears x adidas collection is available now on adidas.com, the adidas app, and in adidas stores and concession retailers worldwide. The collaboration was brokered by IMG.
