With reference to 80s street style as well as strong artistic links to skateboard culture, the Japanese streetwear style of Bape has been intertwined and reimagined with the classic, modern day sport aesthetic of Russell Athletic.

The classic Russell Athletic sportswear silhouettes in bold colour block have been illustrated with the streetwear DNA of Bape. Made up of practical but stylish, standout streetwear, this collaboration includes oversized hoodies adorned with the brands bold logo, varsity jackets, simple branded t-shirts and bold print sweatpants. Wearable as a whole set or as individual elements, the users is free to interpret the collection as they please.
