SuperGroupies unveiled its new Kingdom Hearts collection, with preorders open in North America and Japan. Shipping to Europe is available through WorldShopping. The fashion line includes watches, wallets, umbrellas, backpacks, and jackets, with designs based on nine of the game’s iconic characters. Each order will also come with exclusive postcard art from creator Nomura Tetsuya. Pre-orders will be open until August 14, 2022, at 8 PM PST.
The Kingdom Hearts fashion line initially appeared at the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary event held in Tokyo earlier this year. The announcement revealed that the fashion line would somehow incorporate nine characters from the series into wristwatch designs: Sora, Riku, Kairi, Roxas, Axel, Xion, Ventus, Aqua, and Terra. We now know that each character would not only get their own watches but would also get other fashion items such as backpacks and jackets.
Introducing our new collection for @KINGDOMHEARTS!
The 45-item lineup is inspired by Sora, Riku, Kairi, Roxas, Axel, Xion, Aqua, Ventus, and Terra.

Each item incorporates various references to the character it represents. Sora’s wristwatch, for example, features his crown symbol and his keyblade as the hour hand. Axel’s jacket features some similarities to his Organization XIII outfit and also has the Organization symbol on the chest. While prices for the watches, umbrellas, wallets, and backpacks are all the same regardless of character, jacket prices vary.
