BAPE is celebrating 30 years in business this year, having begun festivities with 12 signed and numbered prints produced by a plethora of international artists. To continue, the imprint is reuniting with adidas for an exclusive Forum Low release consumed by its trademark camo print.

The collaboration marks the duo’s third decade together, having first united in 2003 and releasing endless models ever since — from the 2016 NMD R1 to a three-way partnership with NEIGHBORHOOD on the Superstar BOOST.

For its latest team-up, BAPE envelopes the adidas Forum Low in its signature ABC Camo across two colorways. The first features a beige base with navy, green, and brown splotches throughout, while white leather hits the toe boxes, medials, and tongues. Black Three Stripes decor complements the profiles alongside BAPE’s tinted ape head. Branded throat straps, 30th-anniversary tongue labels, and gilded lace dubraes complete the design.

The second colorway is decked out in several blue tones, boasting silver detailing on the tongues and metal lace clasps. Both pairs are stacked atop creamy adidas midsoles and blue or green rubber outsoles.

Take a closer look at the upcoming BAPE x adidas Forum Low collaboration above. Both pairs are expected to drop on May 20 via adidas and select retailers for $200 USD.
