New Expedition Mickey Mouse Collection Brings Adventure to Disney Parks
A new adventure is about to begin at Disney Parks, and you don’t want to miss it! Check out the Expedition Mickey Mouse Collection coming soon exclusively to Disney Parks.
This collection was designed by Bret Iwan, the official voice of Mickey Mouse since 2009, and blends outdoor style with classic Disney charm.

It is all inspired by Iwan’s love of vintage national parks and exploration. Disney and Bret have an entire interview exploring the new collection that you can read here!
We’ve showcased a few highlights and looks to get you ready for the launch.
Meet Bret Iwan

Bret Iwan is the official voice of Mickey Mouse and has been partnering with Disney to create art and collections for the past few years. This is his latest!
Each piece reflects Iwan’s personal style–comfortable, adventurous, and timeless.

“I’m such a visual person,” Iwan shared. “This is the very first collection where it’s entirely my vision. I did all the artwork, but I was also involved in the color, fabric, stitching, and construction. It was exciting to combine both of my passions.”
The collection includes flannels, utility jackets, sweatshirts, and hats, and channels the rustic look of outdoor living with a Mickey twist.
Iwan drew inspiration from the WPA-era National Parks posters that influenced his previous Disney Fine Art series, then blended it with his love for Mickey and the Disney parks.
“If you look closely, you’ll see Easter eggs like Big Thunder Mountain, The Matterhorn, and Everest hidden in the shirt patterns,” he revealed.

For Iwan, bringing this collection to Disney Parks is deeply personal. “I think there’s something really unique about finding something special when you’re in the park,” he said.
“I hope this collection adds one more layer to someone’s visit—one more layer to their parks story.”
Meet and Greet
Fans can meet Bret Iwan and see the new line in person at a special meet and greet at Disney Springs on November 1.
The day includes a live Q&A at AdventHealth Waterside Stage, followed by a magical opening ceremony at World of Disney and a meet-and-greet with Iwan at Disney’s Wonderful World of Memories. Amazing!
When can fans get these new looks? The Expedition Mickey Mouse Collection arrives at select Disneyland Resort shops beginning October 31, and at Walt Disney World Resort locations on November 1.
