The world of comics is exciting, colorful, and everything in between! And nobody does iconic comics like Marvel. It’s a great franchise that shaped pop culture in so many ways. Naturally, the characters that were born out of these comics became independently amazing and popular. So, it’s no surprise that brands want to collaborate with Marvel and commemorate these characters. This time, Bape and Marvel are coming together for a fantastic collab. The Bape Marvel Fantastic Four release is a must-have, and we’re about to tell you why!
This Isn’t the First Bape x Marvel Crossover!
Let’s talk kicks! Marvel has definitely inspired lots of custom kicks, collabs with brands, and more. Some were hits, others were misses, but one thing’s for sure, it’s been out and about. Now, let’s talk about a previous Bape Marvel collab that we loved! In 2022, a very colorful Bape Sta dropped in the signature patent leather. The Dr. Strange pair retailed for $200, and today, it’s worth an impressive average of $550 on the aftermarket! So, with that said, let’s check out the 2025 collection, shall we?
Bape Marvel Fantastic Four – A Superhero Level Capsule
The upcoming BAPE Marvel collection isn’t your average drop. It’s fully dedicated to the iconic superheroes: The Fantastic Four! This capsule will include five colorways, each representing a character from the heroes to their enemies. Each pair will feature said character on the heel area! Here are the colorways we can expect:
- Blue Bape Sta: The blue and white pair is for Mr. Fantastic and The Invisible Woman
- Red Bape Sta: Who could it be other than The Human Torch?
- Yellow Bape Sta: Yep, you guessed it, that’s for The Thing with the heart of a marshmallow
- Pink Bape Sta: The pink, blue, and white mashup is a tribute to Galactus and Silver Surfer
- Green Bape Sta: Last but not least, Doctor Doom gets the meanest looking pair of the whole collection
Now, in addition to the colorways themselves, the kicks will come in special packaging. The blister packaging will make you feel like you’re unboxing a figurine, not a pair of sneakers! And finally, each pair will feature a shoelace charm in the iconic “4” logo. So all in all, these babies are gonna be worth the investment! Oh, and of course, you don’t wanna miss out on the matching apparel collection that you can check out here.
