Disney Mouse Ears Have Come a Long Way Baby

Mickey Mouse Ears SinageRoy Williams (of 1950’s Mickey Mouse Club TV show fame) may be the “godfather” of the Mickey Mouseket-ears worn by cast members, but I bet he never envisioned the styles that would be released nearly 60 years after his lightbulb moment!

Getting an embroidered set of Mouse Ears is almost a “rite of passage” when visiting the Disney Theme Parks.  And you have never had so much selection as you do today.

The Disney Merchandise Team has really gone above and beyond when it comes to offering up different styles of these precious souvenirs.  There’s something for everyone.  I especially love to see the styles that are released for special events and holidays!  Take a look at these toppers that I spotted at Disney’s Hollywood Studios today…

    my personal favorite is the "mickey pants". The little tail makes them extra special.
  • I thought those were so cute too.

    I have a pair of mouse ears from over 30 years ago. I was twelve at the time and made sure to get my name on the back. It was my first trip to Disney World and I remember telling the man with an embroydering to spell my name right.
  • Would love to see if DL's mouse ears are any different than the ones sold here at WDW
  • Elisabeth
    I was lucky enough to be at Disneyland on the very day they released the Haunted Mansion ears. They are by far my favorite set of ears I have gotten.
  • Oooh...Haunted Mansion Ears! I would love to see them!
  • frances
    i customize mine with the ears having different design and add a patch to the front,one of a kind mine.
  • Wow, they sure have! I'm really bummed the Alice ones seem to have sold out so fast! I really need a new pair of ears tho. I only have my original ones from the 80's with "Suzi" on the back lol and then a couple of graduation ears from the Disney College of Knowledge and DRC training. :P
  • They were nice...I saw a few on ebay but they were going for $200!
  • Sandy Goldberg
    My ears are a couple of years old - a Disney Princess pair in pink with the tiara and a chiffon veil trailing out the back. Given that I am not a child, to put it mildly, you should see the looks I get when I wear them! And oh yes, they certainly are personalized!
  • Sandy...I have a bejeweled tiara that I got from World of Disney that I love and I'm no kid. Rock it girl! Rock it!
  • I personally have 5 pairs (My Happy Birthday ones dont look like the ones in the picture but are my Fav because they are from my 30th bday trip in 2008) My DD10 has 4, & my DD 2 has 1 from her 1st visit @ 8months for my bday. We always get a pair (usually 1st thing 1st day)
    I want several pairs pictured here! We have mine displayed in our soon to be here son's room as it is Mickey themed!
  • Husband has relegated my Disney collection to my office only... =( Of course...I have snuck a few pieces elsewhere. Pirates....I guess Pirates are cool enough to make it into the living room =D
  • My daughter has a black pair of ears, with "First Haircut" on them. She got her first haircut in the main street barber shop in Disney World. Other than that none of us have gotten ears, though we might have to get some on our next trip.
  • Wow! 1st haircut...I have not seen those. Do they sell them only in the Main Street Barber Shop?

    Toy Story ears! How cute!!! How have I missed these?

    The 80's teenager in me kind of likes the plaid ones, too. :)
  • Might be a new style since Toy Story 3 is soon to be released. w00t!
  • learobinson
    My kids have a lot of the ones you have posted here, but they're very first ones were the traditional ones (pink for my daughter and black for my son) with their names on them.

    I let them pick from there on out. We have Toy Story, several princess ones, pirate, Tinkerbell and the plaid one. Love Mickey ears and I firmly believe you can never have enough!
  • Well said! You can NEVER have too much Disney ºoº
