A gentle collision between a streetwear icon and childhood innocence

Collaborations are nothing new in the streetwear world, yet the contrast between the heartfelt characters of Toy Story and PEACEMINUSONE’s signature daisy with its missing petal still feels refreshing. Created by the brand and Pixar Animation Studios, this global art project seeks to blur the traditional boundaries between avant-garde fashion and innocent animation, turning childhood memories into tangible art with a strong design sensibility.

Choose your favorite classic animated character

This collaboration is more than a simple logo mash-up, spanning over 70 collectible pieces with a strong design focus. Based on the information released by the brand so far, the project has a packed schedule of surprises in store. The release girls are likely to be most excited about is the CASETiFY phone case collaboration, available early on June 24. Centered on the theme of Friendship and the bonds between toys, it lets you choose your favorite Toy Story character as your own “FIRST FAN.” Detailed custom prints bring warmth to everyday tech, and the cases are available for select Apple and Samsung Galaxy models, so fans on either side can give their phones a new look.

Global pop-ups begin rolling out on July 1

This global project will kick off in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, on July 1, followed by a series of exclusive pop-ups around the world. If you’re a Pixar fan, keep an eye on the official social channels to see whether your city will be part of this art-filled toy world.
