To celebrate the 15th anniversary of BAPE KIDS®️, we are releasing a collaborative collection with mastermind JAPAN.
mastermind Japan, founded by Masaaki Homma, is a pioneer in the luxury street fashion industry from Japan, and has made numerous achievements throughout the years. Since the re-emerge of the brand in 2017, it has been attracting attention with its unexpected and unorthodox evolution and has gained fans around the world with its one-of-a-kind style that fuses the dark and the luxurious.
BAPE®︎ and mastermind JAPAN have been continuously releasing collaborations based on their strong friendship, starting with the concept store " mastermind A BATHING APE®". Mr. Homma has come on board to present the latest collection for the anniversary of BAPE KIDS®, an essential part of the brand's story, which offers a wide variety of kids' wear that fuses the design languages of both brands.
The unique graphics of the collaboration where the iconic shark and the skull symbolizing mastermind JAPAN are placed separately on the hoodies and TEEs. Also, the classic "WGM" design, which stands for "World Gone Mad," has been changed into "MMB," which now stands for "mastermind × BAPE®︎” in this collection.
Of course, the mascot BABY MILO®︎ also makes an appearance, peeking out from the side of the APE HEAD, making the triple logo series a must-have item for BAPE KIDS®️ fans, fitting for the 15th anniversary.
