BAIT Taps Astro Boy on a Full Capsule Collection
Japanese label BAIT continues to work together with classic Japanese animations and the latest spotlights none other than Astro Boy. The duo joined forces to launch a full capsule collection together -- this includes the contributing efforts of FUNKO, Reebok, and KOKIES to make it possible.
The brand plans to release a dissected design of the Astro Boy figure alongside a silver iteration as well. It is also accompanied by two footwear releases, which feature an Instapump Fury sneaker that can glow in the dark and the notable Club C Stomper sneaker model. In addition to all of this, the capsule is rounded out by a limited selection of three skateboard decks that were originally released in 2020.
