Adidas Superstar II Care Bears Cheer Bear: sizing and guide

A Superstar with Cheer Bear's tummy on the side? Yep, and it's probably the most nostalgic drop of the year. The Adidas Superstar II Care Bears Cheer Bear Women's (style code KK4864) landed on July 1, 2026 as part of the Care Bears x adidas collection and has become the pair showing up in every pastel sneaker feed.

The Adidas Superstar II Care Bears Cheer Bear Women's are sneakers from the Care Bears x adidas collab in Clear Pink, Cloud White and Bliss Pink. They keep the iconic shell toe and the Superstar's three stripes, and add coated leather, Cheer Bear artwork and even a collectible bear keychain on a Trefoil carabiner.

What makes the Adidas Superstar II Care Bears Cheer Bear Women's special?

The beauty is that it's not just a print slapped on top. The Care Bears x adidas collection plays with the whole universe of the series: the Care Bears lettering, the character's belly badge (the tummy logo) and a palette that matches Cheer Bear's exact pink.

On top of that, every pair comes with a collectible bear keychain mounted on a carabiner with the adidas Originals Trefoil. That kind of extra is what separates a collector's pair from an in-line sneaker: once it's gone, it's gone.

The drop had two stars: this pink version dedicated to Cheer Bear and a blue one inspired by Grumpy Bear. The pink one is by far the most searched.

Materials and details: coated leather, shell toe and pastel finish

In hand, the first thing you notice is the subtle sheen of the coated leather upper, giving it a more polished finish than a classic matte-leather Superstar. The gradient between Clear Pink and Bliss Pink looks much better in person than in photos.

Upper: coated leather in Clear Pink and Cloud White, with perforated three stripes and Cheer Bear artwork
Branding: Care Bears lettering and the character's belly badge
Inside: soft textile lining, removable padded insole and tongue with collab branding
Outsole: molded rubber shell toe and rubber outsole with herringbone pattern
Extra: collectible Cheer Bear keychain with Trefoil carabiner

Sizing: do the Adidas Superstar II Care Bears Cheer Bear Women's run big or small?

The consensus among people already wearing the Superstar II is clear: they run true to size. If you usually wear a 38 in adidas, your 38 works here.

The key detail is the last: the toe box is narrow and the shell toe is stiff by design. If you have wide feet or a high instep, going half a size up will save you from side pressure during the first wears.

And watch out for a common expectation: the leather at the heel and around the laces does soften with wear, but the shell toe doesn't give. Don't count on it "stretching out" at the front.

How to style the pink Superstar Care Bears without overdoing it

Simple rule: if the sneaker is already talking, let the rest of the outfit listen. Pastel pink with artwork works best surrounded by clean basics, letting the bear be the only pop of color in the look.

Light-wash denim + white tee: the safest combo and the one that looks best in photos
All-grey or all-beige look: the pink becomes the accent and your ankles take center stage
Pleated midi skirt + short white socks: the retro contrast that suits the shell toe best
Black or navy tracksuit: the more streetwear take, with the keychain hanging from your backpack

A trick: white ribbed socks above the ankle lengthen the silhouette and boost the model's '90s vibe.

Superstar II vs classic Superstar: what really changes

The Superstar was born in 1969 as a basketball shoe and was the first with a molded rubber toe cap, designed to protect the foot on court. Decades later it moved from the hardwood to hip-hop and settled among adidas' all-time best sellers.

The Superstar II is the evolution of that base: it keeps the shell toe, three stripes and reinforced heel, but adds a padded tongue and collar for everyday wear and a textured outsole with more grip. In other words: the same silhouette you already know, with fewer blisters on long days.

That upgraded version is what adidas built the Care Bears project on, which is why the result doesn't feel like a rescued retro sneaker but like a current model with a memory.
