BAPE®’ has unveiled its Fall/Winter 2025 “Performance All Weather” collection, a bold collaboration with designer Kazuki Kuraishi that marks the brand’s first dedicated venture into winter sports apparel. Serving as the collection’s creative director, Kuraishi blends professional-grade functionality with BAPE®’s streetwear DNA, creating a range that transitions seamlessly between urban environments and alpine conditions.
The collection campaign unites a dynamic roster of cultural trailblazers to showcase the line’s universal appeal and functionality. This roster includes prominent figures such as Edison Chen, HOSHI of SEVENTEEN, James Lavelle (UNKLE), JESSE (SixTONES), rapper Kaneee, actress Riisa Naka, as well as designer Sean Wotherspoon.
Each individual embodies a unique perspective on the collection: Edison Chen anchors the campaign with a rebel-cool aesthetic in the snowboard 2-layer jacket, while James Lavelle channels urban sophistication in the detachable zip jacket. Rapper Kaneee electrifies the DIGITAL ABC CAMO tactical set with streetwise flair, and JESSE reinterprets the sherpa detachable coach jacket and pants with a fresh, sporty twist. Styled head-to-toe in disruptive camo redesigns and technical fabrics, the campaign successfully highlights the collection’s bold styling and technical innovation.
The collection is structured in three drops: lifestyle-focused pieces arriving this month, followed by technical snowsports gear in December. Prices range from ¥15,000 (approx. $98 USD) for relaxed-fit tees to ¥110,000 JPY (approx. $717 USD) for varsity down jackets. Drop 1 will be available starting November 8, while Drop 2 will launch on November 22. The last and final delivery will be released on December 6; all will be available via BAPE®’s online and offline stores.
