Canadian footwear giant Aldo has teamed up with Disney to launch a limited-edition collection celebrating the 90th anniversary of the iconic Mickey and Minnie Mouse characters.

 
The collection, comprised of shoes for men and women, as well as women's accessories, was broken into two series including one “for the nostalgic” and another “for the modern”. 
 
The nostalgic collection was inspired by the 90s featuring playful designs with Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in character. Other features include big, bold colours – think yellow and red – denim items and spirited detailing. 

Likewise, the modern collection follows a more subtle and sophisticated take on Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse silhouettes and patterns, with a custom designed leopard print and items like the chic studded loafers for both men and women. 
 
“Bringing to life a capsule collection that embodies our unique Aldo style intertwined with the Disney spirit was a magical journey. One that lead our team of designers to play with countless types of fabrics, silhouettes and shoe accessories along the way,” the company wrote in a statement.
 
The collection includes over 25 items and was released last week, with some items already sold out. 
 
Parent company Aldo Group was founded in 1972. The company has over 3,000 points of sale in 100 countries around the world, operating under two signature brands, Aldo and Call It Spring, and a multi-brand retail concept, Globo.
