Disney and Fanatics Launch Full Disney | Champion NFL Collection Pairing All 32 Teams With Iconic Characters

The league‑wide apparel line went on sale Monday and mixes Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars imagery with official NFL team gear to reach sports and entertainment fans.

Overview

  • The Disney | Champion NFL Collection, revealed in full on Monday, pairs each of the 32 NFL teams with a Disney‑owned character and is available at NFLShop.com, Fanatics.com, DisneyStore.com and select U.S. retailers.
  • Apparel includes t‑shirts, crewnecks, fleece and sweatshirts produced by Champion and distributed through Fanatics’ and the NFL’s retail channels.
  • Disney’s design lead Bret Healey said the matchups were chosen to reflect team qualities, city identity and fan culture and the line draws from Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars franchises.
  • Social media reaction has been mixed, with fans praising some pairings but criticizing others and raising concrete complaints about specific matches, price points and limited size offerings.
  • The collection is positioned as a nostalgia‑driven, cross‑brand marketing push ahead of the NFL season kickoff on Sept. 9, and public response to pairings and assortment will likely shape early sales and restocking decisions.
