UGG and BAPE work in collaboration once again to drop a selection of sheepskin goods for the colder seasons. The pieces are modeled by rapper Lil Wayne -- he is a fan of both participating fashion labels in the collaborative effort. The collection is comprised of a selection of co-branded goods including the signature UGG boots, footwear, sneakers, and more.
Notably, all of the pieces are adorned in the iconic camo print pattern in a subtle tonal infusion. The UGG boots also now host gold chains all over. There is also a sheepskin jacket and mittens that boasts similar design elements as the footwear options. The first drop is set for the end of February this year, followed by a wider launch in April.
