BAPE x adidas Snowboarding

Originally established in 1993, A Bathing Ape has progressed to become one of the largest streetwear giants in recent history, introducing many classic motifs that have become synonymous with the brand. Camos, Ape Heads, and Shark Hoodies can be seen on a worldwide level, and adidas was one of the first to tap into their talents. Now tackling snowboarding equipment, the two collaborative partners are ushering in many innovations to elevate what is seen typically in the sport. The Slopetrotter Pant and Snow Jacket are the most heavy duty of the capsule, incorporating a waterproof fabrication as well as the capsule’s main Aurora reflective detailing. Though more contemporary, the hoodie is not lacking in that same detail as its Climalite material and water-repellant coating add to its overall utility. In the accompanying footwear, the two chose to modify the 3ST.002 — a signature snowboarding model. Minimal in its aesthetic, the shoe opts for a refined nubuck upper and socket slip-on construction alongside a thermos-reactive allover print and the same reflective accents. A worldwide release at select retailers and online is slated for November 3rd.
