AceShowbiz - If you've been hooked on KATSEYE’s infectious new single "Pinky Up," released on April 9, then you’ll be excited to know the group has launched an exclusive merchandise collection available at Hot Topic.

KATSEYE dropped their latest techno-pop hit "Pinky Up" as their first release as a five-member ensemble, following the hiatus of member Manon in February. The track was penned by renowned songwriter Justin Tranter, who has contributed to hits for artists like Britney Spears, Gwen Stefani, Linkin Park, Kelly Clarkson, Sara Bareilles, Selena Gomez, Lady Gaga, and Ariana Grande. Production credits go to dwilly, hitman bang, and FRANTS, while the music video was directed by Bardia Zeinali.

Prior to the single’s official launch, KATSEYE teased fans with an Instagram Reel on March 30 featuring an artistic nod to the Mona Lisa, depicted sipping tea with her pinky finger elegantly raised. This subtle teaser captured the essence of the track and built anticipation among their growing fanbase.

Following the song’s release, the group made a highly praised live debut at the 2026 Coachella festival on April 10, performing "Pinky Up" to widespread acclaim. The track resonated strongly with fans, earning the top spot in Billboard’s poll for "favorite new music release this week."

To celebrate the song’s success and their impressive Coachella performance, KATSEYE partnered with Hot Topic to offer a curated line of "Pinky Up" merchandise, blending style with a nod to the song’s unique aesthetic.

Among the standout pieces is a pompom-adorned keychain priced at $17.90. This accessory features silver hardware and a holographic charm with the KATSEYE logo, making it versatile enough to attach to keys, bags, or totes. The keychain adds a fun, personalized touch to everyday accessories, offering fans a stylish way to represent the group.

Another highlight is the Pinky Up Clothes Pile T-Shirt, retailing for $29.90. Fans who have watched the music video will recognize the graphic on this pastel yellow tee — it depicts the “horse” made from a pile of clothes that group member Yoonchae rides. Accented with pink lettering, the design is both playful and fashion-forward. Unlike typical merchandise that can sometimes lack style, this tee combines artist inspiration with a fit and design that appeals to trend-conscious fans.

For those wanting to complete their look, the collection includes a black "dad" hat with yellow embroidery, priced at $29.90. Made from distressed cotton, the cap offers a relaxed, slightly unstructured fit that’s casual yet stylish. Its simple yet distinctive design makes it a versatile accessory for everyday wear.

Beyond these key pieces, the collection also features a variety of other merch items, all available for purchase at Hot Topic stores and on their website. These include:
