In this latest release set for the weekend at Bape Hong Kong, look for an assortment of tees to drop. Ranging from rather childish renditions of Baby Milo, to more iconic uses of camo, a diverse range is available starting this Saturday.

Originally introduced in 1970, the adidas Americana changed court shoe style permanently, with a perfect balance of then-groundbreaking performance and influential aesthetics. For decades, collectors have admired the OG low-cut take, with a more minimal look than the high top variation.
Mixing mesh with leather, plus felt stripes and a heel panel, the ABA (American Basketball Association, of which the Americana was the official shoe) red and blue combination remains timeless for this resurrection of a slimline, lightweight classic that harks back to the French made original.
To complement this seminal design’s return, the Americana Low OG also comes in a reflective snakeskin effect, blended with premium suede for a striking, contemporary interpretation of this silhouette. Both shoes will be dropping exclusively at O-Stores soon.
