BAPE has been on a roll this year, celebrating the 25-year anniversary of the BAPE STA, adding collabs with museums, Mickey Mouse, and superstar athletes. The latest pair from A BATHING APE’s adidas partnership is just as loud as any, mixing pink and purple shades on the Adizero Goukana.
Camo Stripes
The BAPE x adidas Adizero Goukana is a throwback to the early 2010s bright camo fashion, mixing as many shades of pink and purple as possible on the bulky mesh runner. This is just the second collab we’ve seen on the Goukana this year, with a roadkill-themed gradient from Sneaker Politics. Moving from the American South to Japan, the BAPE Goukana is keeping the bright gradient tradition alive.
Starting with the mesh base in pink and purple BAPE camo, the leather toe, lace, and heel structure switch to shiny stacks of pink and purple leather. The massive midsole starts purple at the front and switches to pink at the heel, with white stars on the lateral sides and adidas Stripes on the medial panels. Finally, the pink laces are interrupted by four gold pieces of lace jewelry, bringing BAPE’s World Gone Mad branding with an alternating BAPE head and Trefoil on the bottom lace.
