Creative Yoko Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagano City, Nagano Prefecture; President: Takeyuki Kitahara) has launched the 2026 spring/summer collection of cat products featuring Marie, the popular character from Disney's animated film "The Aristocats," starting February 13, 2026 (Friday) at Pet Paradise stores nationwide and online.
The 2026 spring/summer collection features items in Marie's signature pink color accented with black. By adding calming colors to the sweetness, the collection expresses a sophisticated French girly style that doesn't lean too heavily on cuteness. While these are cat products, the design pursues an aesthetic that naturally blends into interiors and lifestyles, offering a lineup that goes beyond just being "cute." Additionally, popular items from last year, such as the "Cradle House," have been updated with refined materials and details to incorporate current trends. The collection continues to evolve each season while cherishing Marie's world.
For international visitors to Japan, character products are particularly popular as they can be understood intuitively across language and cultural differences, with design conveying image and value in an easy-to-understand way. "The Aristocats" has high recognition overseas, and Marie is beloved across countries and generations, making this series attractive without requiring detailed product descriptions. It's suitable for both gift-giving and personal use, demonstrating high compatibility with the inbound market. Furthermore, character products are in high demand at duty-free stores as items that provide "uniquely Japanese" and "Japan-like experiential value" that "can only be bought in Japan," and the company positions this as a high-growth category within cat products.
The Marie series aims not for one-time product releases but for a lineup configuration that allows customers to continuously enjoy the world view. Moving forward, the series will further expand to include standard items such as dress-up hats, collars, and cat toys. While changing expressions with each season, the products will add color to daily life with beloved cats and continue to be proposed to customers both domestically and internationally as long-loved items.
*"The Aristocats" is a Disney animated film released in 1970.
