BAPE Celebrates Its 30th With an Exclusive London Collection

Shortly after news broke about BAPE preparing to link up with Canada Goose later this year and the all-new Inter Miami x BAPE collab, the globally recognised Japanese streetwear brand is continuing its 30 years in the business celebrations with a brand new London collection.

Following its successful collaborations with adidas for the Campus 80 and Forum 84 Low collections, BAPE is extending its reach globally to celebrate its significant milestone.

During this summer, BAPE is making its way to England, where the iconic streetwear brand will unveil an exclusive London-themed collection that is expected to rapidly sell out. This unique collection will be available both online and at BAPE’s Central London store.

The centerpiece of the collection is a new t-shirt decorated with a distinctive blue and red ape head graphic. Alongside the t-shirt, the collection includes pins, magnets, and lanyards that are bundled together.

The standout feature of the new graphical tee is an active speaker box found inside the ape head, a nostalgic detail we don’t often find in clothing these days. The artistic ape head itself has been designed in a dual-toned camouflage hue – paying homage to BAPE‘s recognisable motif of the last three decades.

The back of the shirt features Japanese lettering accompanied by sketched details, which are also echoed throughout the variety of accessories that complement the collection’s overall aesthetic.

For a more detailed glimpse of BAPE’s 30th-anniversary London collection, you can explore the gallery above. All these items are available as a set for £139.00 from BAPE’s official UK website and BAPE retail stores located in London.
