A BATHING APE® expands its footwear offering with the introduction of the BAPE® SLIDE, reflecting the evolution of slides from functional staples into statement-driven essentials. Once rooted in utility, the category has shifted toward fashion-forward and performance-oriented design—an ethos that informs BAPE®’s latest entry.
The new model is defined by a streamlined profile, balancing minimal structure with bold identity through the integration of BAPE®’s signature SOLID CAMO. Applied across the upper, the iconic pattern brings a recognizably graphic edge to an otherwise clean and modern form.
Construction plays an equally central role. Developed in collaboration with XL EXTRALIGHT®, the design utilizes a patented foam material known for its exceptionally lightweight, soft, and flexible properties. The result is a slide that delivers comfort and durability without compromising on form, aligning performance-driven innovation with contemporary styling.
