Fred Perry and BAPE work in collaboration once again, marking the second time that the two forces are joining. It is set to launch online beginning March 11th online. The capsule fuses British themes with Japanese streetwear after the duo first joined forces back in 2021.
Together, it is made up of a polo shirt, taped track jacket, hooded sweaters, and more -- all of which are detailed with the camouflage pattern. The standout item in the range is the twin-tipped polo shirt with more camouflage prints by the front panels and trimming. Additional details include the embroidered typography on the back and it comes in either black or purple tonal options. The hoodies and track jackets are adorned with co-branding details and have camo along the paneling.
