The 7UICE x BAPE STA blends Boston green and Philadelphia black, debuting at a meet‑and‑greet before an online release.
By Felo News Desk · Published
Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown’s first official sneaker collaboration with Japanese streetwear label Bathing Ape (BAPE) will be released as the “7UICE x BAPE STA,” a design that merges Boston’s green cue with Philadelphia’s black aesthetic.
The limited‑edition shoe features a black leather upper, green piping and a heel stamped with “7UICE.” The first 50 buyers who line up at Philadelphia’s Lapstone & Hammer store on October 17 will meet Brown and receive early purchase access. An online launch follows on October 18, extending availability beyond the in‑store event.
Trendhunter notes the drop highlights a growing trend of athletes using place‑based designs to create collectible footwear that ties personal branding to city identity.
