A BATHING APE are a brand who have had a continued connection to football. While they live in lifestyle spaces, their appreciation for football has always come well worn. Dropping a handful of pieces as we edge closer to the 2018 FIFA World Cup, the brand have released a capsule collection to mark the occasion.

Embracing what will be one of the most fashion engaged tournaments of all time, BAPE have bridged football and fashion through their own lens once more and with their latest capsule collection. Featuring a collection of football inspired tees, the release also sees the brand drop a special edition match ball. Black and red camo colours keep it unanimously on point.

Each piece carries the message "Apes Together Strong 1993 - 2018". Marking the year of BAPE's inception, it has been a journey that's brought them to the top of the streetwear scene. Bringing the global game into the mix now, it's a synonymous relationship where sport meets style.

Look out for the collection at your usual BAPE pick-up point. It's available from 9th June.
