Gap has welcomed another iconic collaboration to its growing roster with the launch of the Gap x Muppets collection and it’s sure to have every millennial and Gen-X heart screaming. This limited-edition collection, launched exclusively on gap.com, pays tribute to Jim Henson’s beloved Muppets with a playfully nostalgic yet understated twist on the brand’s staple styles.
Featuring seven distinct pieces, the collection includes two cozy crewneck pullovers and five graphic tees, all designed with a relaxed, oversized fit perfect for everyday wear. With unisex sizing and a range of fabric colors — white, black, pale heather gray, and off-white — these items are a chic, versatile addition to any summer wardrobe.

Price: $68
At the heart of each piece is a bold, black-and-white portrait of one of the Muppets’ most beloved characters: Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, and Animal. Each portrait is paired with Gap’s iconic logo in the bottom corner, merging the Muppets’ timeless charm with the brand’s signature minimalist style. The graphic designs are printed on soft cotton jersey tees ($48) and heavyweight French terry sweatshirts ($68), making them as comfortable as they are stylish.
This collaboration marks the first time Gap has teamed up with the Muppets, a media franchise acquired by Disney in 2004. The collection takes inspiration from the Muppets’ fun, colorful world while keeping the designs sleek and accessible, allowing fans to wear their favorite characters in a fresh, modern way. Styled under the creative direction of Zac Posen, the collection integrates iconic Gap spring essentials, including denim jackets and organic cotton poplin shirts, into the characters’ looks, making the Muppets feel right at home in Gap’s world of classic American style.

While Gap has become well-known for its collaborations with brands like Dôen, Cult Gaia, and Disney, the Muppets partnership adds another layer of pop-culture magic to its expansive lineup. This release also comes on the heels of other notable children’s programming collaborations, such as Sesame Street’s recent venture with Reebok and Disney’s Mickey & Friends collection with Aéropostale. The growing trend of media franchises teaming up with fashion brands signals the continued merging of nostalgic TV moments with contemporary style.
The Gap x Muppets collection is a limited-edition drop, so it’s available only while supplies last. While the new Muppets collection is not part of Gap’s sitewide sale, it promises to be a must-have for both Muppets fans and anyone looking to add a fun, nostalgic touch to their graphic tee collection.
