You saw the Medicom Toy x A Bathing Ape Bearbrick figure, and now both brands have unveiled the Bape x Bearbrick T-shirts to add to the collection.
This time, A Bathing Ape is showing off their talents in the fashion department by contributing a few new tees. The Bape x Bearbrick T-shirts depict the infamous Ape head, but this time you'll notice that it has bear ears as a nod to Medicom Toy's popular figure. Each piece of apparel features the same graphic image, but with different backdrops so that each edition stands out on its own.
All of the Bape x Bearbrick T-shirts will come with the white Bearbrick figure upon purchase. The special edition shirts will be up for grabs for Bapemania members.
