\n\tWhile Taylor Swift<\/a> was cooking up a new country hit for \u201cToy Story 5,\u201d health care-focused brand Clove was working with Disney<\/a> and Pixar on a footwear<\/a> collaboration to bring the franchise\u2019s beloved characters to life in a new light.<\/p>\n

\n\tFor Clove\u2019s first licensed partnership with Disney<\/a> and Pixar, the collection includes four styles with designs inspired by character iconography. Buzz Lightyear, Woody, Jessie and the Aliens from the \u201cToy Story\u201d universe all get their own colorway and design, with details drawn straight from the source material. Meanwhile, matching compressions socks designed for 12-hour shifts complete the collection.<\/p>\n

\n\tJordyn\u00a0Amoroso, cofounder and chief brand officer, said, \u201cWe approached these shoes the same way sneaker<\/a> brands approach iconic drops: through storytelling, emotional connection and collectible design. The result feels equally at home in a hospital hallway or on a sneaker<\/a> shelf.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Clove x Toy Story 5 collection launches June 17\u00a0at\u00a0goclove.com\u00a0and select retailers; an early access sign-up page can be found on Clove\u2019s website.<\/p>\n

\n\tCofounder and chief operating officer Paula Belatti said, \u201cWe never compromised performance for creativity. These are still the same workhorse products our community relies on. They just happen to carry the energy and excitement of a true sneaker collaboration.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tClove has made collaborations a key focus for the brand, previously dropping a fruit-themed sock collaboration<\/a> with beverage brand Olipop and a butter yellow sneaker<\/a> in partnership with Land O\u2019Lakes, for example.<\/p>\n

\n\tFounder and CEO Joe Ammon said in a statement, \u201cHealth care workers have spent years being an afterthought in product design and culture. Over a million of them trusted us with their feet and the least we can do is show up for them the way the best sneaker collabs show up for their communities.\u201d<\/p>\n
