Sonic’s Sidekicks Finally Get the Merch Love They Deserve
Sonic’s sidekicks are finally getting the merch love they’ve been waiting for—no more playing second fiddle to the blue blur.
Steady Hands’ new collection shifts focus from Sonic-centric designs to characters like Blaze, Rouge, and the Werehog.
The line includes knitted cardigans, embroidered shorts, and Shadow-themed apparel—plus Angel/Dark Chao variants and items for Cream, Big, and Vector. Creator Kara praised the Chao cardigan’s durability and the knitted Blaze design’s detail.
"I’m far from the only person who is a little bit sick to death of seeing the same Sonic design plastered on cheap t-shirts," one fan wrote. The collection aims to serve niche audiences without overshadowing Sonic’s legacy.
