The collection boasts t-shirts, sweaters, hoodies and sweatpants in beautiful pastel shades just like the Care Bears that we are so familiar with. The items mainly feature the Care Bears™ and Bape®︎ logo, symbolising the collaboration between the two.

For the ladies who prefer having the Care Bears on the front of your clothing, these sweaters and hoodies let you flaunt your Care Bears proudly while keeping you warm in air-conditioned environments.

These t-shirts are probably our favourite out of everything in the collection because of how suitable it is for Singapore's sunny weather and how cute the Care Bears look being incorporated into the BAPE logo.

The BAPE x Care Bears collection launches on 14 December 2019 and will be available at selected A BATHING APE® locations. If you are heading to Japan soon, make sure you visit the stores there to be one of the first to get your hands on this collection.

BAPE also replied to a comment on their Instagram account stating that the collection will be available for purchase online. Although there is not much information on how much these cost and where exactly to get them, stay tuned to BAPE's Instagram account for the latest updates.

Ladies who love both streetwear and cute things will definitely have to cop some (or all) when the collection launches!
