Hypebeast Alert: BAPE Announces New Capsule Collection Featuring ‘The Mandalorian’

While we still wait for Baby Yoda toys to hit the shelves, we are getting some drip from the BAPE in the form of t-shirts featuring popular characters from the Disney+ show The Mandalorian.

The iconic streetwear brand announced a new capsule collection in collaboration with Lucasfilms that pays tribute to the hit Star Wars original show, The Mandalorian. The t-shirts will not only feature the brand’s famous mascot Baby Milo but The Child (Baby Yoda) and the series titular character and reluctant hero, The Mandalorian drawn in Bape’s popular style as well as Star Wars branding.

The collection which arrives on Saturday (Feb.29) consists of three T-shirts that all come in either black or white. They reportedly will cost $75 each, but on BAPE’s website, the price is listed at $115. We expect this collection to sell out rather quickly, so you better be on top of your game and hit up the select BAPE locations and BAPE.com to secure your t-shirt at a retail price.

This latest collection is part of a long line of collaborations the streetwear brand has released. Earlier this month, the company announced a capsule collection with Pusha T as well as Reggaeton star, J Balvin. Back in 2019, BAPE teamed up with Detroit rapper, Big Sean for his own capsule collection as well.

Lil Wayne got in on the act and was the face of BAPE’s collaboration with UGG. It looks like BAPE is gearing to have a very busy 2020.

Supreme Fall/Winter 2019

Get ready—bandanna prints and fake fur will be a thing this winter. SUPREME has unveiled their upcoming Fall/Winter 2019 collection and it covers every color of the hypebeast spectrum.

The forthcoming release features a wide array of outerwear items ranging from 8-Ball inspired leather jackets to some very aggressively themed fleece zip-ups intended to make the wearer feel like they are better than everyone else. While the New York City-based brand did stick to their usual script of t-shirts and hooded sweatshirts they produced some pieces that are normally not in their wheelhouse.

Included are sharkskin suits in both a copper and turquoise variety that will make it easy for you to channel your inner Henry Hill. Additionally, they also produced a single-breasted wool overcoat with a windowpane check design. Fanatics should not worry though as the streetwear giant did come with their unique twist on accessories which consists of five-panel hats with their signature block logo. Lastly, in typical SUPREME fashion they also curated some very random lifestyle pieces such as a Honda CRF dirt bike and branded burner phones.

The SUPREME 2019 Fall / Winter collection will be available online starting August 31. You can see more of the selections below.

Chinese Hypebeasts Come To Blows Over KAWS x Uniqlo Collection [Video]

KAWS x Uniqlo 2019

Remember when you had to be ready to knuckle up at a sneaker camp out in the United States? Well China is bringing those feels back in 2019.

As spotted on High Snobiety the recent launch of the highly anticipated KAWS x Uniqlo drop caused a real scene at a Chinese retail location. So much so that consumers sprinted into the mall location. Even before the gate was lifted fans crawled in to get first dibs. The frenzy was so lit that they eventually started ripping the wears right off the mannequins.

While this is nothing we haven’t seen at a Black Friday sale things went left rather quickly when some shifty shoppers couldn’t cop their wish list. Footage shows one individual tussling with another male in an effort to rip the t-shirt right off him.

The KAWS x Uniqlo collection sold out immediately online when it was originally released on Monday evening, China time. Thankfully there is more to go around as it is also hitting Europe on June 6. More clips from the madness below.

Hypebeast Alert: SUPREME Fouls The Classic Timberland Moccasin

Sometimes fashion brands get out of hand with their designs. Case in point we will take a hard pass on the new SUPREME and Timberland capsule.

The streetwear giant has unveiled its newest collaboration with Hip-Hop’s favorite outdoor apparel company. SUPREME has put their own twist on Timberland’s 3-Eye Classic Lug Shoe, again. While the silhouette stays true to the original design the limited-edition release features hand sewn calf hair upper paneling for a premium touch. Additionally, we get SUPREME branding via a metal shoelace plate.

Where things go left are the colorways put to use. The moccasins come in a leopard print that is polarizing to the say the least. No matter how fashion forward you may think you are these animal flavored feet pieces are begging for the side eye. Luckily there is an all black option that is less bold but the shoe still loses its classic rugged appeal.

The SUPREME x Timberland drop will be available at stores in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Los Angeles, London, Paris and online starting March 7.

In the past decade and change, the popularity of Nike Air Force 1’s has been steadily falling but that might change for a second thanks to a second Supreme & Comme des Garçons SHIRT® collaboration.

Supreme recently dropped pics of the upcoming collaboration which features the classic Nike silhouette sporting a black and white colorway and features a split swoosh on both the outer and inner side panels of the sneakers. The heel will also have a feature of its own as it’ll be embroidered with the “COMME des GARÇONS Shirt — SUPREME.”

Will this be enough to entice sneakerheads to start rocking AF1’s again or is this just something that hypebeasts will be looking for?

Check out pics of the upcoming release below and let us know if you’ll be checking for these when they drop on November 8 in New York, Brooklyn, LA, London, Paris and online. Japan will have to wait a few more days as they’re slated to drop there on November 10.
