The traditional buttons also get retrofitted, instead with a unique bottle shank cap. For the two pairs of jeans, the aforementioned back patch gets a silver-plated update. All the pieces come with a mid-indigo wash for a worn-out aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p>The collection will be produced in limited quantities with a lottery taking place at Levi&#8217;s online store, and the trucker jacket an exclusive to AMBUSH. Everything else will be available in AMBUSH&#8217;s brick-and-click, Levi&#8217;s Harajuku flagship and Osaka store from 16th September.<\/p>\n<p>In the same vein, A Bathing Ape preserves the Japanese fascination with college Americana fashion through the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2022\/09\/15\/bape-black-revives-college-americana-in-f-w22-collection\/?slide=right\">BAPE BLACK Fall\/Winter 2022 Collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/15170737\/91EB7AFC-2464-4BE7-AB14-48B91F473D45.jpeg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41615\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/15170737\/91EB7AFC-2464-4BE7-AB14-48B91F473D45.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/15170737\/91EB7AFC-2464-4BE7-AB14-48B91F473D45-300x291.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/15170737\/91EB7AFC-2464-4BE7-AB14-48B91F473D45-1024x994.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/15170737\/91EB7AFC-2464-4BE7-AB14-48B91F473D45-768x746.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/15170737\/91EB7AFC-2464-4BE7-AB14-48B91F473D45-268x260.jpeg 268w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22285\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\" width=\"970\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp 970w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-300x93.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-768x238.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-282x87.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the awhile now, VERBAL and YOON&#8217;s AMBUSH\u00ae label has been at the vanguard of some of the most intriguing collaborations.
