The Duo's Second Collaboration.
Expanding from the success of the first collaboration released around the same time last year, JJJJound and BAPE are back for seconds as they put another timeless spin on the BAPE STA. Combining BAPE’s bold approach to design with JJJJound’s minimalistic direction, the result is a timeless and uncomplicated shoe with rebellious undertones due to the nature of the silhouette.
The sneaker will sport a 100% white calf leather upper that features hits of navy blue in the form of the signature star on either side as well as the outsole, sock liner and heel tab. Sporty, round laces with branded silver aglets and a custom co-branded box will also be included.
An apparel line will also be released alongside the coveted shoes, all pieces featuring the collaborative moniker ‘A Timeless Ape’, alluding to the design codes adopted by JJJJound’s founder Justin Saunders – a flip on the previous phrase ‘A Tasteful Ape’ from their last collaboration. The capsule will include a hoodie, sweatpants, a t-shirt and two trucker hats.
The collection and sneakers will be released on January 7th at BAPE stores worldwide and online at JJJJound and BAPE’s webstores.
