If you’ve ever wanted to celebrate your love of Disney’s global parks while simultaneously promoting environmental causes, you’re in luck — a new “Love Our Disney Theme Parks” shirt is now available for purchase in Disneyland Park.
‘Love Our Disney Theme Parks’ Shirt – $39.99
We found this shirt at Disney Clothiers, located on Main Street, U.S.A.
The shirt is an apt earth tone, its slightly off-white base serving as a canvas for the orange and teal detailing that provides pops of color. Its bright orange rounded collar matches the hue of some of the lettering on the shirt’s front.
“Love Our Disney Parks” is written in an orange and teal type with the color of the lettering alternating in an indistinct pattern. The font frames the teal outline of the universal recycling symbol, with the Disneyland-branded recycling bin layered atop the logo tying together this shirt’s environmentally-cautious message. Teal flowers with orange centers add a bit more environmental imagery to the bottom of the shirt, and the Disneyland Resort logo appears underneath all of the type.
The back of the shirt features no branding or detailing, keeping a plain beige color.
New Disney Parks Clothing line
The new “Love Our Disney Theme Parks” shirt is part of a Disney Parks-centric clothing line, and while this specific shirt was the only part of the collection that we found at Disneyland, we recently found the entire line at Star Traders in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World.
The only noticeable difference between the Disneyland and Walt Disney World versions of this shirt is the resort-specific branding; the “Walt Disney World” logo appears on the version we found at Star Traders, and there’s a Walt Disney World icon on the recycling bin as opposed to a Disneyland logo.
The larger collection includes a teal sweatshirt featuring a moonlit Cinderella Castle, orange sweat-shorts, and a white t-shirt that wishes the person behind the wearer “a magical day at the park.” To check out the entire collection as it appears at Magic Kingdom, click here.
We even recently found the “Love Our Disney Theme Parks” branding on another piece of merchandise. In late June, the “Love Our Disney Theme Parks” lettering (including the recycling symbol and bin) appeared on a beige reusable water bottle at the Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom.
Disney’s Environmental Efforts
Disney Parks & Resorts hopes to achieve zero landfill waste by 2030. At the forefront of this effort has been the phasing out of single-use plastic straws and stirrers at Disney Parks, with the parks-wide initiative commencing in 2018. Disney’s Environmental Goals Program states that the initiative has been successful thus far, as the company has “eliminated over 200 million plastic straws and stirrers,” “completed removal of polystyrene cups,” and “reduced plastics in over 15,000 . . . guest rooms by 80 percent” since the effort began.
Paper straws were implemented to replace plastic straws, and Disney Parks & Resorts even plans on cutting back on these. As of August 21, 2023, Walt Disney World Resort no longer hands out paper straws and plastic lids at quick-service restaurants. They are still available upon request.
