Global Street Style.
The renowned K-pop boy band Stray Kids joins forces with BAPE – a symbol of Japanese street fashion for more than 30 years – to bring the unstoppable energy of K-pop into the world of streetwear with the BAPE × STRAY KIDS collection.
Formed by JYP Entertainment in 2017, the group stands out for composing and producing their own music – a blend of K-pop, hip-hop and electronic sounds. Together with BAPE, they’ve created a limited-edition collection that inspires fans to celebrate their individuality and express their passion for music and streetwear, while commemorating the release of their fourth studio album Karma and their world tour.
The collaboration reinvents BAPE’s iconic Shark Hoodie – each Stray Kids member selected a favourite colour camo and three embroidered letters to reflect their individuality. In addition, the college tee features matching camo prints hand-picked by the members. The original Skzoo characters appear in BAPE’s signature graphic style, perched atop the Ape Head logo. The Baby Milo Tee, meanwhile, showcases the beloved mascot Baby Milo alongside world-famous artists and iconic cartoon IPs.
As part of the collaboration, the brand has refreshed its classic BAPE STA sneakers – a special edition featuring bold colour camo designs inspired by all eight members of the group.
The BAPE × STRAY KIDS collection will be available via Stray Kids’ online fan shop and BAPE global channels starting 29 October.
