Also for the Incredibles Box Lunch has a Violet Womens Tank Top ($28.90) that has a hidden Violet design.
Meanwhile Stance has Incredibles socks for the whole family ($14-$16) – some featuring the logo, some with minimalist character designs.
And the Torrid Incredibles activewear by Her Universe looks really fun ($34.90-$56.90).

There’s more jewelry to be had with the Dinosaur Skeleton Earrings ($10.90), an exclusive to BoxLunch.
The park vehicles that aren’t so great at protecting you from dinosaurs are featured in this Jurassic Park woven button-up ($44.90) also exclusive at Box Lunch.

The bright green of the I Am Tinker Bell runDisney Performance Leggings for Women ($65) and I Am Tinker Bell runDisney Performance Tank Top for Women ($45) is fun. I’ve never tried out the Shop Disney / runDisney performance wear so if you have, let us know what you think of them in the comments.

Apparel for the galaxy far, far away has slowed down a bit this month overall but there are a bunch of new shoes for your consideration. Ugg has a special edition Millennium Falcon/hyperspace boot ($130 -$180) available in toddler, kids, and men’s sizing. Not entirely subtle but there’s some cuteness.

Last but not least, Po-Zu is back with more Star Wars fun. These cute R2-D2 High-Tops* (£69.00) are unisex, use fair trade rubber, and are now available for pre-order with delivery expected at the end of August.
