The Japanese streetwear brand BAPE has collaborated with Pernod Ricard’s Monkey 47 and is here with something unique and fascinating! A highly desirable batch-distilled and handcrafted gin from the Black Forest mountain range in southwest Germany. But wait the fun doesn’t end here! This collaboration is unique because it has two parts!
The first one is the limited-edition Monkey 47 bottles and to complement that uniquely is an apparel capsule. Monkey 47’s one-of-a-kind bottle is a superb marriage of both companies’ trademark codes: Monkey 47’s ‘wunderbar’ jungle pattern and Bape’s cultish camouflage style that ruled the 1990s.
BAPE’s iconic streetwear fits and accessories, including as the Hawaiian shirt, hoodie, t-shirt, and even a skateboard, have been reinterpreted in an all-new tropical camo hybrid in an interesting fusion of green, pink, and blue, rendering it just perfect for the summer! The Monkey 47 x BAPE collaboration will be officially unveiled on May 28 at Warehouse 46 in Alserkal Avenue, with an invite-only event. The collection is available now in limited runs in BAPE’s physical stores and via selected Monkey 47 distributors.
