Circa 2008 · NIGO Era

A meeting of two Japanese pop-culture worlds. Nintendo’s Mario joins Baby Milo in a collaboration that brings classic gaming nostalgia into BAPE’s playful visual universe. The “Mario to Milo” collection dates to 2008, during NIGO’s time at the label, pairing the familiar Nintendo character with BAPE’s own unmistakable mascot.

Presented in a full-zip hoodie, the crossover captures the character-driven spirit of late-2000s BAPE—a period remembered for its bold graphics and collectible collaborations.
