BAPE's sublabel AAPE works in collaboration with Alpha Industries once again on a new collection designed with inspiration drawn from the iconic FIRST CAMO patterning print. The duo deliver a wide range of layering designs for accessibility during the season transition.
The signature camouflage print is explored in a variety of different colors and decorated with a range of prints. Across the collection, the design language comes from a militaristic angle that are enforced by silhouettes including the two bomber jackets offered in the capsule. The jackets are complete with a rear zipper and bold text prints, elasticated sleeve, buttoned placket, and quilted body. Additionally, the collection also features a paneled hoodie with camo prints and contrasting logos.
