MMJ BAPE® HAND KNIT COWICHAN

GRAILED ALERT This 2011 collaboration between Mastermind Japan and Bape resulted in a highly sought-after and limited edition handmade cowichan sweater. The collaboration combined the design aesthetics of both Mastermind Japan, known for its skull motifs and dark color palette, and Bape (A Bathing Ape), recognized for its bold and playful streetwear designs. The sweater likely incorporated elements such as Mastermind Japan's signature skull motifs or Bape's iconic camouflage pattern, resulting in a unique blend of styles. Given the limited nature of collaborations between these two influential streetwear brands, the 2011 Mastermind Japan x Bape handmade cowichan sweater is considered a collector's item and is highly prized among fashion enthusiasts and collectors. Its rarity, quality craftsmanship, and fusion of design elements from both brands contribute to its high value and desirability among fashion aficionados. Cowichan sweaters are known for their thick, hand-knit construction and intricate designs, originating from the Coast Salish peoples of the Pacific Northwest in Canada.
