The Twitch phenom also wears a baseball cap with KidSuper emblazoned on it, a white tee with the iconic ape branding, and baggy denim pants accented by the KidSuper brand logo.

The collaborative capsule was showcased at the Paris Fashion Week in January 2025 and marked BAPE's first appearance at the fashion week event. The collection comprises over 40 pieces of apparel, footwear, and accessories.

The capsule combines BAPE’s ABC Camo with KidSuper’s Face Camo. KidSuper also remixes Bape’s iconic shark hoodie to feature a smiling shark, an ode to KidSuper’s motto of making people smile. The Super Ape collection offers BAPE STAs that blend KidSuper’s eye and face motifs into sneaker silhouettes.

The collection’s accessories include an eye mask, toothbrush, earplugs, socks, comb, pencils, and a Colm X BABY MILO notepad. Pricing ranges from $150 to $600.

KidSuper founder Colm Dillane described the collaboration as a full-circle moment. Dillane started his design career by screen-printing shirts for customers waiting to purchase BAPE streetwear.

In a press release announcing the collaboration, the designer stated,

“I used to sell T-shirts to the BAPE® line in high school—I even made bootleg BAPE® shirts in my friend’s basement. Fast forward 15 years, and now it’s a full-circle dream to be collaborating with them. Working with BAPE® is one of those surreal moments where something you imagined as a kid actually becomes real. I hope you can feel that when you see the product.”

BAPE CEO Mahmoud el Salahy described the collection as a celebration of the past, present, and future of the brand:

"From East to West, the outliers shaping culture share a mindset — fearless expression. Today, we celebrate that belief alongside generational talent Colm Dillane as we launch the BAPE® by KidSuper collection as a co-creation that celebrates the past, present, and future of the brand.”
