Canada Goose and Bape unveil second collaboration

Canada Goose is set to launch on Saturday its second collaboration with Japanese streetwear brand, Bape (A Bathing Ape). 

Bape, founded in 1993, has become a household name in the world of streetwear, recognized for its iconic shark hoodie and distinctive camo patterns. The limited-edition collection combines Canada Goose’s core products and Bape’s distinctive style.

At the heart of the collaboration is Canada Goose’s classic Crofton Puffer and Freestyle Vest reimagined in Bape’s signature ABC Camo pattern. The ABC Camo Crofton Puffer, made with Recycled Feather-Light-Ripstop fabric, boasts an ultra-lightweight design with a water-repellent finish, ensuring warmth in temperatures as low as -25 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, the ABC Camo Freestyle Vest, a versatile layering piece suitable for all seasons, keeps wearers warm in temperatures as low as -5 degrees Celsius.

As part of Bape’s 30th anniversary, the collaboration also introduces limited-edition Bape x Canada Goose Be@rBrick collectible figurines. These figurines, adorned with the signature collaboration prints, pay homage to both brands’ legacies. The Medicom Toy Be@rBrick collectibles, available in 100%, 400%, and 1000% sizes, are scheduled to launch in spring 2024.

“We’re proud to be partnering with Bape for the second year on another iconic collection that showcases the transformative capabilities of our core styles and allows the powerful streetwear aesthetic of Bape’s signature colours and patterns to shine,” said Niamh McManus, senior director product design Canada Goose. 

“This year’s collection features signature prints, applied to Canada Goose consumer favourites combining performance, style, and warmth in perfect, versatile fashion-forward pieces ideal for the upcoming winter season and beyond.”
