BAPE® adds to their iconic Artist Collaboration's with Contemporary Artist, Joshua Vides for a limited-edition collection. Filled with streetwear essentials and accessories, the offering fuses the in-studio process from Vides and Bape’s iconic visual graphics.
To put forth a collection that presented new ideas, while also staying true to BAPE®’s history, Vides reimagines classics like the infamous BAPE® CAMO, the APE HEAD logo, and BAPE® ROAD STA sneaker. The Apparel offering stems from vintage APE HEAD T-shirts which were screen printed by hand in large scale. You can find similarities in the current collection with DIY approaches via spray painted stencils and Vides’ Signature Brush Stroke.
“High School Josh is pinching himself right now. I was one of the very few kids who not only knew what BAPE® was but actually owned a piece. If you would have shown me this collection then as a teenager with my name on everything I wouldn’t believe it. Only so many Artist’s receive the opportunity to collaborate with arguably one of the most influential brand’s of our generation. Proud is an understatement”.
The standout of the collection is the Coveted BAPE® ROAD STA with Vides’ Signature lines hugging every corner of the silhouette. Offered in a soft hand leather, you’ll find a limited offering of 100 Pairs that arrive in a custom wooden box Displaying Vides’ rendition of the infamous BAPE® CAMO.
BAPE® X JOSHUA VIDES collection will be available at BAPE STORE® London and on UK.BAPE.COM on Saturday, March
