END. and BAPE are the latest two forces to work in collaboration alongside one another as the duo prepares to drop a new collection of retro streetwear silhouettes. This time around, the two brands deliver a range that is inspired by bowling themes, captured through the lookbook as well.
The new range of vintage looks features apparel and footwear options, celebrating Americana silhouettes that are fused with Japanese craftsmanship thanks to the contributions of BAPE. The collection is made up of silhouettes including a classic bowling shirt, a bold varsity jacket, graphic tees, and a pair of new BAPE STAs that are designed with inspiration from the look of traditional bowling shoes. It is rounded out by a BAPE head bowling ball with pins.
