Comme des Garçon (CdG) and BAPE are celebrating their five year anniversary this week. The two powerhouse brands have crafted a small capsule collection for the occasion, featuring the BapeSta and a range of tees and accessories, available exclusively in Japan.
Rei Kawakubo’s Comme des Garçon has a wide range of collaborative partners, often teaming up with brands in the sneakers & streetwear scene. One of their more recent partners is BAPE, the iconic Japanese streetwear label known for its colorful ape-themed gear and definitely-not-a-Nike shoes like the BapeSta. This week, the two have announced their fifth anniversary collaborative collection, releasing exclusively at the Osaka, Japan CdG store.
The upcoming capsule collection from CdG and BAPE is slated to release tomorrow, and only today do we have a full look at the small assortment of items that will be available. The star of the show is the BapeSta, which comes in an all-white build with the Comme des Garçon block lettering logo printed over the outer sides of the shoe. Metal hardware adds some more pizzazz to the model, while a 5 on the heels celebrates the anniversary of their partnership. The collection also includes a selection of t-shirts, which will come packed inside of a soup can. Other accessories on offer include a co-branded trucker hat, socks, and small side bags.
