BAPE x HIDDEN.NY STA Revealed With Green Accents
BAPE and New York–based creative collective HIDDEN.NY have unveiled a capsule collection anchored by a reworked interpretation of the STA silhouette. The collaboration emphasizes restraint in material selection and strategic color blocking, with May 2 as the confirmed release date.

The partnership merges two distinct design languages: BAPE's foundational silhouettes and graphic vocabulary with HIDDEN.NY's minimalist aesthetic and institutional branding. The result is a collection that favors reduction over excess, a notable shift in tone for both parties.
The Footwear
The collaboration's centerpiece is the BAPE STA, reimagined with a stripped-back leather and suede construction. The upper retains the silhouette's structural integrity while introducing forest green accents that function as both visual anchor and design through-line across the entire range. Embossed "H" branding appears as discrete detailing, signaling HIDDEN.NY's presence without overwhelming the shoe's proportions.
Apparel and Accessories
Beyond footwear, the capsule extends to printed fleece with updated gray camouflage patterning—a BAPE cornerstone recontextualized for the collaboration. Collegiate crewnecks and hybrid logo tees round out the wearables, each piece working within the same restrained color palette that defines the collection's visual coherence.
A deep green specialty ashtray serves as an unexpected utilitarian accent, demonstrating the kind of sideways thinking both labels have cultivated within their respective communities.
