Japanese streetwear brand A Bathing Ape has teamed up with Drake's fashion label OVO to release the BAPE x OVO Fall/Winter 2021 Collection. The partnership marks the second time these two brands have come together on an expansive collaboration, the first of which dropped just over a year ago.
The new collection features a wide range of co-branded garments made inspired by the fall season. These include a varsity jacket, a woodland camo vest, a parka jacket, a BAPE Shark hoodie, OVO owl crewneck sweaters, t-shirts, sweatpants, and more.
The campaign for the collection features superstar rapper Future and NBA prospect Amari Bailey, both of whom model various outfits for the new lookbook. The BAPE x OVO Fall/Winter 2021 Collection will be released on October 30 on the OVO and BAPE website.
