A BATHING APE® × ©SAINT Mxxxxxx

A BATHING APE® (BAPE®) unveils a collaborative collection with ©SAINT Mxxxxxx, led by designer Yuta Hosokawa and artist Cali DeWitt.
The collection spans apparel and lifestyle offerings, including two Tee designs, a short-sleeve Crewneck Sweatshirt, a Sweat Jacket, and a Mesh Cap, alongside a curated selection of home goods.
At the heart of the collaboration are original graphic works by ©SAINT Mxxxxxx, drawing from iconic BAPE® motifs. Elements such as the GENERAL HEAD, ape imagery, and STA are reinterpreted through ©SAINT Mxxxxxx’s distinct visual language. Combined with BAPE®’s Fearless Expression ethos and silk-screen printing inspired by early archive collections, the result is a powerful expression where the identities of both brands converge.

The Tees arrive in two designs. The black version features an ape skull graphic on the front, with “SAINT SHALL ALWAYS LOVE APE” printed on the back. The navy version showcases ©SAINT Mxxxxxx’s reimagined GENERAL HEAD alongside the phrase “FADE AWAY LOVE” on the front. Both styles deliver bold statements rooted in symbolism and attitude.
The short-sleeve Crewneck Sweatshirt integrates GENERAL HEAD and STA into striking graphics. Designed with rounded half sleeves, it is offered in pink and delivers a relaxed yet intentional silhouette.

The Sweat Jacket revisits a Nordic-pattern motif pulled from the BAPE® archives, redrawn by the ©SAINT Mxxxxxx designer and reintroduced through the brand’s signature approach.

Each item in the collection features ©SAINT Mxxxxxx’s signature vintage-style processing, including distressing, fading, and naturally cracked prints. The worn-in finish gives the graphics weight and character, while an APE HEAD woven label on the left sleeve cuff subtly marks the exclusivity of the collaboration.
The mesh cap is detailed with SAINT and STA graphics and finished with a ©SAINT Mxxxxxx sticker on the brim.

The lifestyle lineup extends the collaboration’s graphic language into the home, featuring a pail-can stool dressed in an original BAPE® x ©SAINT Mxxxxxx ABC CAMO, a doormat inspired by an archival Union Jack patterned APE HEAD design, and a glow-in-the-dark tray designed for both storage and display.


Artist JP THE WAVY fronts the collection visuals, reflecting his close connection to both brands. The shoot was photographed by RK at the BAPE® Harajuku store.
Selected items will be available starting Saturday, February 7, 2026 on EU.BAPE.COM.
