The first collection, inspired by SpongeBob SquarePants, will debut at retail this spring.

Nickelodeon and Dungeon Forward first initiated their collaboration in late 2020, when they began ideating about how to bring these classic series to life in a unique way in the headwear category. They are now readying for their first collection release, launching in June, entitled "The Bikini Bottom Capsule," featuring an assortment of headwear inspired by SpongeBob SquarePants. Future collections will feature other classic Nickelodeon brands including Hey Arnold! and The Ren & Stimpy Show. Dungeon Forward is also working with Paramount Consumer Products to launch an adjacent children's brand featuring styles inspired by Nickelodeon's roster of beloved preschool properties.
