Captain America, the Hulk, Iron Man and Thor all make their debut as ape-like versions of themselves on the tees. The other tees in the line feature the Marvel logo and the Bathing Ape logo made from a collage of the collaboration's super monkey designs. The final piece in the collection is a zip-up hoodie, which is printed with the same super monkey collage print.
