If you love the 80’s and you love Netflix, then we know you must be obsessed with Stranger Things. Premiering July 4 with another season, this nostalgic (and also thrilling) series is taking us back to the era of mall rats, scrunchies, and the best music (which you can even get on tape).

The best part? Many brands are getting in on the fun to release 80’s throwback items such as Nike, Baskin Robbins, and Levi’s. Get ready for a flood of amazing 1980’s throwbacks!


Baskin Robbins is bringing a new flavor to life and sporting a new (or should we say old) look. You can take a home a quart of the new flavor: U.S.S. Butterscotch, including “delicious butterscotch pieces”.

Along with this new flavor, we’re also getting a U.S.S. Butterscotch Sundae, an Elevenade Freeze, and a Byer’s House Lights Polar Pizza. Grab your collectible quarts at participating locations.

Coca-Cola is releasing a limited edition can of the New Coke. Season 3 of Stranger Things will be set in the summer of 1985 – the same year New Coke made it’s first appearance.

Coca-Cola will even be using the same recipe from 1985. You can grab a can at a store near you for a limited time.

Levi Strauss & Co. is bringing 80’s styles to life. Regularly sported by the television show’s characters, Levi’s used its archives to create authentic “period-correct looks from 1985”.

Levi’s released a statement regarding the products: “Not only will these full looks appear in the show, they’ll also be available for purchase as part of the Levi’s® x Stranger Things Fall/Winter ’19 collection, available in store and online starting today.”
