YesterEars

Disney Parks Blog has announced a new vintage apparel collection called “YesterEars” coming to the Disney Parks Online Store on August 18. This collection’s name get’s its inspiration from a shop with the same name once found at the former Downtown Disney Pleasure Island.

Over next three months, you will be able to find limited releases of this apparel inspired by classic Walt Disney World Resort attractions and locations. Check out what you will be able to find from August 18-25, 2016 at DisneyStore.com/ParkEvents.

The first shirt in this collection is inspired by the Journey into Imagination. It is a recreation of a shirt worn by Disney Park’s own Steven Miller on his first trip to Walt Disney World. As a boy he fell in love with Dreamfinder and Figment. How incredible is it that the Disney Design Group artist Richard Terpstra recreated that exact ringer t-shirt! If anything shouts nostalgia, this shirt does.

Richard also designed this Raglan that features artwork inspired by a Walt Disney World Preview Center advertisement. The Center was open from January 10, 1970, until September 30, 1971. The original Preview Center building can still be found on Hotel Plaza Boulevard near Disney Springs.

Lastly, is an X-S Tech shirt inspired by ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter. This was an attraction opened in Tomorrowland from June 20, 1995 to October 11, 2003. I remember my first time experiencing this attraction was on a Middle School Field trip a few months after it had opened. Not going to even pretend, I was terrified getting on it! Within the Tomorrowland Interplanetary Convention Center was the laboratory of X-S Tech, a corporation from a distant planet who wanted to flex its interplanetary teleportation apparatus. The demonstration of power went awry with difficulties and an alien creature was accidentally teleported into the laboratory. Also known as me screaming my head off in the dark. The shirt features the logo of the corporation from this attraction.

What do you think of these very vintage and nostalgic designs coming soon? I’m so excited to see things from my childhood and before displayed on t-shirts that will be available. I think YesterEars is not only a clever, but perfect idea for an apparel collection!
