Exclusive Direct-to-Collector Experience

 

Available Only Through Our Store

Many of our limited-edition teddy bears are available exclusively through the Herrington Teddy Bears Store. These collections are not sold on Amazon, eBay, or other marketplaces.


By offering our bears directly, we maintain a close connection with both longtime collectors and new customers. We regularly share upcoming designs and new releases through Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, creating an interactive experience around each collection.


Our Founder & Brand Story

 

Founded by Chris Herrington

Chris Herrington, founder, creative director, and lead designer of Herrington Teddy Bears, established the company in 1986.


The journey began with limited-edition teddy bears created for the original Cheesecake Factory restaurants in Marina del Rey and Beverly Hills. From there, Herrington Teddy Bears expanded to collaborations with Hard Rock Café locations worldwide, Giorgio Beverly Hills, Mercedes-Benz, and colleges and universities across the United States.


Herrington Teddy Bears have been shipped to more than 60 countries, and many early editions remain highly sought after by collectors today. Based in Orange County, California, Chris continues to guide the brand with a passion for craftsmanship, storytelling, and collectible design.


What’s Coming Next

 

New Collections for 2026

2026 marks an exciting new chapter for Herrington Teddy Bears. Upcoming releases include:

A World Cup Teddy Bear Collection celebrating all 48 participating countries

Special limited editions honoring the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America

New releases from the Harry & Hannah Collection, Classic Teddy Bear Collection, and Chris Herrington Collection


All upcoming editions will be available exclusively through our online store.


Limited Editions & Production Timeline

 

How Our Limited Editions Work

Many new Herrington Teddy Bears are offered through advance ordering. During a defined ordering period, collectors may reserve their bear before production begins.

Production typically takes 90–120 days

In-stock items ship immediately

Made-to-order editions are produced once ordering closes


This process ensures every bear is crafted with care and remains truly limited and collectible.
