The last time Bape hooked up with adidas it was a pretty big deal, with the collabo resulting in the ultra limited Adidas Super Ape Star Camo, a sneaker that still fetches a pretty penny on the resell market. Keeping that in mind, the long overdue followup should shake things up as well. This go around is much calmer than what you’d expect from Bape, but the clean off white sneaker mirrors the overall trend of streetwear since the last time these two giants got together. We’re back with some detailed photos of the A Bathing Ape x adidas Originals Superstar 80s ‘B-Sides’, giving you an up close look at the various bits of Bape flavor that make these adidas so special. Hit the jump to take a look at the full set and stay tuned with us for the August 13th release of this sneaker. via HS

A Bathing Ape is known for their reinterpretations of American classics that have over the years included a variety of adidas-inspired designs, but this latest release sees Nigo connect with The Brand with the Three Stripes to collaborate on one of the ones he borrowed. The Bape x adidas Originals Superstar 80s ‘B-Sides’ is uncharacteristically calm for a Bathing Ape release, but then again, a quick look back over their recent offerings elicits a similar reaction. A simple off-white suede with navy blue leather accents and just a hint of gold on the tongue is a can’t miss colorway for summer, though they’re expected to hit retailers toward the tail end of the dog days with an August 13th scheduled release.

A Bathing Ape’s footwear collection is a series of offerings based on American classics, this latest model the brand’s first foray into the world of skateboarding sneakers. The BAPE Yanksta ‘Action Milo Print’ applies the brand’s cartoon mascot to the midsole of a model who owes its existence to Vans. This silhouette is quite similar to Off the Wall’s Era lowtop but the foxing band on the Yanksta is about as wide as an entire pack of Eras combined. These joints hit BAPE’s NYC flagship this past weekend and their surprisingly low-key colorways are now available at A Bathing Ape‘s web shop.
