The Tokyo 2021 Olympics are just around the corner, and Japanese toy brand Sanrio is celebrating this event with the Hello Kitty x Team USA collection in collaboration with Olympic medalist Allyson Felix.
Hello Kitty and Olympics fans will find clothing, toys, accessories, and more to explore in this collection. The entire collection is available to browse at Sanrio’s site, but stateside retailers like Target and Urban Outfitters offer selected clothing items for purchase. Funko is also offering a set of five unique Hello Kitty Pops doing different sports on Amazon.
To get ready for watching the Tokyo games this summer, you’ll want to look the part. Urban Outfitters currently has a cute lilac bucket hat featuring Hello Kitty holding onto the American flag saying Team USA above the Olympics logo that anyone can wear. The brand will also showcase some men’s apparel from the collection, so make sure to check that out when it becomes available.
Allyson Felix is a hero to many young girls who also adore Hello Kitty. Target is offering selected clothing items from the collection for girls. Heading outside? Make sure to put on a Hello Kitty visor complete with her face, bow, and ears. Pair it with the Team USA rainbow and starry shirt or the knotted sweatshirt with a red bow on the hood. After a long day watching the Olympics, girls can head to bed wearing a red, white, and blue pajama set shirt that says “Dream Big,” complete with a star-patterned eye mask.
For the sporty girls that want to become Olympians one day, you’ve got to have the proper attire. Young girls wanting to be like Naomi Osaka can don the Team USA skort and windbreaker to feel like they’re at the games. Those who want to follow Allyson Felix’s fast footsteps can wear the jogger pants featuring a Hello Kitty running up the side with an American flag and channel victory in a gold sequined top that says “Go for gold.”
Make sure to check out the whole collection on Sanrio’s site and the selected items at Target, Urban Outfitters, and Funko on Amazon.
