AAPE Fall Winter 2023 Menswear Collection: Drawing on Skate, Hip-Hop, and Collegiate Culture
AAPE, the youth-oriented diffusion line of Bape, has released its Fall Winter 2023 menswear collection. The collection draws on influences from skate, hip-hop, and collegiate culture, with a focus on the future. The collection features graphic fleeces, embossed denim, and the AAPE Galaxy baseball shoe.
The collection is organized around four main visual themes:
- AAPE HIP-HOP: This theme incorporates unique patterns and dying techniques, such as Spray Camo, tie-dyeing, and heavy wash effects, in the spirit of individuality and creativity.
- AAPE COLLEGE: This theme features varsity-inspired styles, such as baseball jackets, camouflage tracksuits, sweatpants, and sweaters, that interpret the retro essence of team uniforms and college sports.
- AAPE TEAM: This theme explores more innovative and futuristic designs, making over classic sportswear and workwear styles with AAPE’s signature flair, including a gradient ape face camouflage pattern and infrared light-inspired tones.
- AAPE SKATE: This theme features AAPE’s take on durable skate staples, including textured camouflage denim and hooded plaid jackets, as well as the graphic t-shirts that are essential to any skate-friendly wardrobe.
The AAPE Galaxy, a baseball-inspired shoe, is the highlight of the AAPE SKATE collection. The shoe updates the classic baseball silhouette with a cool and comfortable canvas upper with contrast stitching throughout. The usual rubber sole is given a city twist with stylish ribbing encasing the heel and toe, with “AAPE NOW” printed text branded along the midsole.
The AAPE Fall Winter 2023 collection is available now from IT shop and other retailers across the globe.
