Disney jewelry has become increasingly popular over the last several decades and more and more designers and brands are including the beloved characters on their signature offerings. Lifestyle brand Enso Rings has been working with Disney for a few years now and this spring and summer I was invited to check out their newest Disney and Pixar silicone rings that share motivating words, celebrate friendship and honor an animated classic.

If you’ve been following LaughingPlace.com for a while you know we have merchandise spotlights focusing on brands and products that we love. Today we’re exploring the world of Enso Rings and three of their recent Disney Collections. After a brief introduction at C2E2 this spring, we were offered some sample rings for editorial and review purposes and I jumped at the chance to check out their newest Disney selections. We received: Pixar’s “Find Your Motivation,” Disney’s Lilo & Stitch and Disney’s Alice in Wonderland.
Enso Rings
Before we dive into the Disney designs it’s important to know why Enso Rings are so special. They are soft, flexible, silicone rings that are safe to wear every day in every situation. Whether you’re working at the office or working out at the gym, these rings will move with you; and unlike metal rings, if Enso Rings ever get caught on a hard surface, they can tear away or break without doing damage to your fingers. Typically telling someone their ring can break wouldn’t be a selling point, but in this case it means you’re safer! And Enso Rings believe in their product so much that they offer a lifetime replacement guarantee in the event your ring tears or breaks.

Enso Rings are crafted in the Rockies and their designs like the Disney Collections feature laser etching that won’t fade or wear off. This also helps to present a crisp detailed image you won’t find anywhere else. The inside of each ring (the part that touches your finger) includes the company’s logo and evenly spaced rivets that allow for airflow and help prevent the ring from sticking to you. Ok, now onto the fun stuff!
Pixar – Find Your Motivation
In June, the Pixar Collection added two new designs encouraging messages to help fans “find your motivation.” These included a blue ring with Buzz Lightyear (Toy Story) that reads “To Infinity and Beyond” and a diamond white offering with Dory and Nemo (Finding Nemo) saying, “Just Keep Swimming.”
I think this is my favorite of the three sets, as I love the deep blue color and am especially fond of Pixar. The Pixar rings are available individually ($39.99) or can be bundled into a 2-ring collection ($63.99) and you can choose two of your favorite designs.
If you're purchasing two rings they’ll be packaged in a cute collector’s box and for storage and display!
Lilo & Stitch
June also saw the addition of three Lilo & Stitch styles in honor of Stitch Day on June 26th. Why this day? Well Stitch is known as Experiment 626 and the June date is perfect for such an occasion! Instead of going the classic blue route, Enso mixed it up and embraced chill vibes with green, purple and pearly hues for this collection.
Stitch is joined by his alien pal Angel and the two are all smiles on a iridescent green ring. The purple option reads “It’s A Vibe” and shows Stitch relaxing somewhere warm (the beach, pool, patio?). I did not receive the pearl ring in my samples, but this one says “Get Out and Make Waves” with Stitch splashing in the water while holding onto a surfboard.
The Lilo & Stitch Collection can be purchased individually ($39.99) or combined in a 2-ring box ($63.99) set just like the Pixar offerings.
Alice in Wonderland
This month, Enso Rings took a trip down the rabbit hole with Alice in Wonderland! The titular character stars on her very own bright blue ring that’s nearly identical in color to her on-screen dress. For this collection she’s joined by the Cheshire Cat who’s all smiles on his own neon pink ring.
As with the above Disney styles, the etched designs cover the entire band and are incredibly detailed. These can be purchased separately ($39.99), however, if you’re buying both in the box set ($63.99), you can get an extra bonus: two braided stacker rings in white designed to be worn on either side of the Alice ring. Why? To recreate the pinafore and complete her dress!
Final Thoughts and Observations
Now that I’ve had time to wear and use the Enso Rings, I really do like them. They come in standard full ring sizes from 3-14 and you can find a handy ring sizing guide right on the website! As promised these are soft and flexible and I found them quite comfortable to wear all day. I even sleep with them on! It did take a little time to get used to wearing the rings because Enso’s standard size is wider than what I normally go for in a band, but they are not uncomfortable.

I don’t feel that they slide on as easily as traditional jewelry and past the knuckle I had to gently work them down my fingers. Once on, you’ll know you're wearing them and with the nature of the silicone material they’ll gently hug your finger but they’re not constrictive. They’re also designed to relax so if the initial fit isn’t quite perfect, give it a day or two before trying to exchange sizes.
I love that the rings won’t fade and that the details won’t rub off no matter how often I wear them. That said, there’s one particular task that has me always taking them off: handling raw meat. I’m afraid I’ll get bacteria or juices in the etched spaces and that has prevented me from even trying to prepare any type of animal protein with the rings on, however this also extends to my wedding band which I also take off just to be safe.
As for other activities, Enso Rings have been great for working out (mainly yoga), driving, and even giving my dog a bath! I don’t feel like they’re going to catch on anything and if they did, they wouldn’t do any damage to my hand. I like that they are casual and colorful and giving me so many options to mix and match with my wardrobe.
Enso Rings’ licensed Disney designs extend to Disney Princesses, Disney Princes, Disney Villains and more. They also have Star Wars rings and bracelets for fans who are obsessed with the galaxy far, far away!
