A Bathing Ape diffusion label AAPE has kepts fans on their toes over the year — collaborating with everyone from New Balance to the hit MOBA game League of Legends. Now, it’s linked up with California-based skate brand Vans to outfit its Sk8-Hi Bolt and the Authentic Bolt in two camouflaged colorways each.

The thunderbolt-equipped silhouettes have been outfitted in “Grey Camo/Blue” and “Camo/Pink” — placing an emphasis on the jazz stripe of the Sk8-Hi Bolt and the heel’s “Aape” hit on each. In addition to this, a red tongue tag adorns all four pairs while ‘Aape “apes and planet earth”‘ text can be found in black on the heel of the white midsole of the shoes.

For those interested in picking up a pair, the AAPE x Vans Sk8-Hi Bolt and Authentic Bolt are both available now via select AAPE and Vans stockists.
