Editor’s Notes: The Weeknd may have been snubbed from this year's Grammy nominations, but his XO label has landed another high-profile collaboration with BAPE. This time around, the joint effort spotlights the iconic BAPE STA, which is offered in two colorways.

The XO BAPE STA is set to arrive this weekend on December 12 in celebration of the silhouette's 20th anniversary. BAPE has also tapped other collaborators for its "BAPE STA 20TH ARTIST MODEL SERIES,” so you'll want to stay tuned for news on upcoming releases.

Here, we find the BAPE STA optioned in black and green as well as white and green, with XO branding on the heel and a XO lace lock charm designed especially for the collaboration. The sneaker will be available online and at BAPE stores in just a matter of days.
