Disney's most well-loved mouse has remained an iconic figure since he first surfaced in the late 1920s and the latest CHALLENGER designs are one of the more recent implementations of it.
Although the underground streetwear brand that's based in Japan stays true to Mickey Mouse's original look, it adapts him with a rebellious edge -- positioning him on a skateboard as he flips through the air. These CHALLENGER designs are included on warm crewneck shirts, tees, as well as a selection of hats which come adorned in a unique rope accent that complements the brim.
Colorways are mostly neutral, with gray, black and white variations adding to the vintage look that's maintained by the Mickey Mouse graphics. Diverging from this however is a bright blue hat, which supplies the collection with a welcome pop of color.
