2023 marks both the 20th anniversary for BAPE’s partnership with Adidas and the 30th anniversary for the Japanese streetwear brand’s foundation. In celebration of both, the two collaborators are bringing the “STA” logo to the Campus for the very first time.
The fuss-free low-top is treated to dual branding, with Adidas’ iconic Three Stripes and BAPE’s signature star logo alternating turns on the lateral and medial sides of the sneakers. These white marks appear in smooth white leather with a matching mustache, while the rest of the upper is rendered in navy suede.
Gold embossing calls out Adidas and A Bathing ape on their respective lateral sides along with coordinating gold heel logos. On both sneakers, you’ll find a special logo for BAPE’s 30th anniversary embossed tonally into the tongue, as well as gold block “BAPE” dubraes. Off-white soles round out the details, and the kicks will drop with a special box and drawstring bag created just for the affair.
Adidas, BAPE, and Undefeated previously collaborated on the Campus in 2013, but this marks the first time the BAPE-STA’s marks carry over to the silhouette. Look for the commemorative shoe to drop April 1 through the two brand’s websites and select stockists for a price of $150.
