Where should we be looking? We are specifically in search of a sweatshirt or jacket. Thanks in advance!

You will find no Marvel Merchandise inside of MK because of the Marvel theme park rights with Universal. That goes back to before Disney owned Marvel and is still in effect. Marvel items cannot for the most part be inside the parks with some exceptions like Guardians of the Galaxy as those characters were not prevalent at the time and thus not covered by the contract.

You can however find Marvel merch outside of the parks pretty readily. Disney Springs has a Marvel Superhero Headquarters store over toward The West Side which is a good bet. I've seen Marvel items in some resort shops too, even actual comics, but it is pretty sparse. Disney Springs is going to be your best bet.

At MK, I'd check The Emporium and shops in Tomorrowland. DD bought some Capt Marvel stuff at the space mtn gift shop, but this was several months ago. When Guardians of the Galaxy movies came out there was merch at Mickey's Star Traders.
I've seen Marvel pins at most gift shops, but I doubt you'll see sweatshirts/jackets in the parks right now since there hasn't been a movie released in several months. I agree that checking the Marvel store in Disney Springs would probably be your best bet (this store was much smaller than I expected it to be).
They do sell a shoulder Groot in the parks, my DD bought one!

They have a captain marvel purse backpack thing at uptown jewelers. I think they had a dress at some point.

Wait there are actual shoulder stuffed animals? I assumed people were attaching them to their clothes on their own lol

Nope. Comes with a magnetic clip
There are a free marvel items they can have in WDW. But only a few
For the most go to universal. They have awesome stuff. I love the boutique there

Magnets.

You place a metal 'patch' under your clothes, and the plush 'sticks' to your clothes (because there is a magnet inside the plush).

My kid sometimes 'sticks' her magnetic Porg to the 'fridge.

I'm going to Islands of Adventure for a day and I'm stoked to check out the Marvel stuff--I wasn't a big fan yet on previous visits. Do you recall seeing any Doctor Strange merch there? And is it just the shops in IoA, or is there a shop out in CityWalk with Marvel stuff?

There's a universal store in citywalk with a small selection of marvel, also different carts with some marvel merch
I saw a dr strange action figure at ioa last week, don't remember anything else

Dr Strange is one of those characters that is in limbo, Disney can use him which means Universal's use is limited.
My favorite stores are in IoA but they have a few things all over.
The best store for Dr Strange will be the one right near Spiderman ride. They have oodles of books too.

doctor strange and guardians are the only present properties allowed INSIDE parks in Florida (Eternals coming out next year seems to be on that list as well)

Thanks for the reply! I'll definitely stop in there.

I just wish Disney would do more with him merch-wise. He (or at least the Seal of Vishanti) was included in a decent amount of the Marvel Day at Sea stuff, but it's frustrating when one's favorite apparently isn't considered to be as marketable as the others. I'll keep an eye out both places; I assume at Universal I'll just be seeing comic book versions of the characters regardless (which is not a downside).
