Say Bonjour to the Bape x ASICS GEL-1090 "France Camo"

After joining forces for the very first time earlier on this year, A Bathing Ape and ASICS are back at it once again and are teaming up to launch a brand-new colourway of the GEL-1090. Titled “France Camo” the pair opts for a distinctive tri-colour look that combined with BAPE’s signature camouflage patterns make for an eye-catching appearance that will no doubt be popular with sneakerheads across the globe.

Crafted from various fabrics including suede and durable canvas, the GEL-1090 is a versatile retro runner that has transcended into lifestyle territory, with BAPE pimping the silhouette up to allow it to appeal to streetwear aficionados.

ASICS signature arrows logo runs across the lateral and medial sides while the classic camouflage patterns depict the iconic Ape Head logo for a maximalist take on branding. Plenty of padding and support is located around the ankles while 1090 is embroidered onto the tongues. The heel tabs offer up an ASICS logo on the left sneaker and the Ape Head logo on the right shoe, once again pointing to the collaborative nature of the release.

If you’re liking the look of the BAPE x ASICS GEL-1090 “France Camo” then keep your eyes peeled for a European release, as the pair have already been released in Japan and will likely launch globally soon. Make sure to keep it locked in right here at The Sole Supplier and while you’re here check out the BAPE x UNO collaboration that’s also on the way soon!
