Walking the runway at Tokyo Fashion Week Spring\/Summer 2024 show, is BAPE&#8217;s interpolation of the Big Red Boot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The entirety of the boot is covered with the Japanese legacy streetwear brand&#8217;s iconic ABC camo. Three colorways are seen\u2014a pink, a blue, and green; with the Ape Head emblem integrated within the pattern. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These looks come courtesy of Highsnobiety. MSCHF has confirmed to Complex that BAPE did purchase a batch of the Big Red Boots to specifically customize for the show.
