Hello Kitty is no stranger to Major League Baseball. Since 2011, the Los Angeles Dodgers have hosted an annual Hello Kitty Night, which, in recent years especially, has become a favorite amongst fans for its highly sought-after merchandise, exclusively available to those in attendance (and a hot commodity on eBay after the fact). Now, sports retailer Homage is making the coveted crossover a bit more accessible with a new Hello Kitty x MLB clothing collection.

Available exclusively on Homage.com, the officially licensed capsule will roll out in limited quantities throughout the 2026 MLB season, with the first nine products dropping online on Tuesday, May 5. This initial launch highlights three teams: the L.A. Dodgers, New York Yankees and Chicago Cubs. Each team has a Hello Kitty-clad tee available in three size ranges: women’s, unisex and youth.

Adult t-shirts (extra-small to 3XL) retail for $40 and kids’ tees (sizes two to 12) retail for $30. While Homage has yet to announce the other teams participating in this partnership, the full collection is confirmed to include 30 styles across adult and youth sizing.

This MLB partnership joins dozens of unexpected brand collaborations with the beloved Sanrio character, which were especially prevalent during Hello Kitty’s 50th anniversary in 2024. Most recently, the famous white cat (who’s apparently not actually a cat, according to the creators), teamed up with Crocs on a new shoe collection for spring, along with Pop Mart (creator of the treasured Labubu) on The Monsters × Hello Kitty and Friends collectibles.
