BAPE and adidas have fostered a close relationship over the years, resulting in a wide variety of projects from camo-covered UltraBOOSTs to multi-brand collaborations involving NEIGHBORHOOD. Now, the duo's latest effort takes on Damian Lillard's next signature shoe, the adidas Dame 9.
Back in 2018, BAPE assembled three colorways of the adidas Dame 4 -- featuring famous BAPE motifs such as its shark and camouflage. Now, with the Dame 9 debuting soon, BAPE has prepared three colorways of the silhouette. Pictured above is the "Olympic" rendition that is expected to be an F&F-exclusive, though "Red/Gold" (pictures embedded below) and "Green/Gold" looks are expected to drop publicly this month. Based on the two pairs we do have imagery for, the new model has been adorned with golden co-branding that involves the Ape Head at the lateral heel and "BAPE STA" branding at the heel. Camouflage detailing also arrives at the layered upper and on a pair of laces with special aglet branding.
At the time of writing, neither BAPE nor adidas have announced the release details regarding their latest collaboration involving Damian Lillard. That being said, Hypebeast JP reported a release date of August 31, with the "Red/Gold" and "Green/Gold" pairs being made available to the public while the "Olympic" colorway will remain an F&F-exclusive. Stay tuned for updates, including a first look at the "Green/Gold" iteration, as we await more info.
