FIT FOR THE SEA: The Bored Ape Yacht Club Celebrates Its Fifth Anniversary With An All New Nautical Merch Drop That Leans Into The Yacht Club Aesthetic!

All a-bored!

As Bored Ape Yacht Club members celebrate five years since mint, Yuga Labs has announced a new nautical themed merch drop arriving tomorrow that pays homage to the club’s earliest days and sets the course for a new era of swamp style, one that leans fully into the Yacht Club aesthetic.

“Five years of the Best Club on the Internet. A small capsule to mark the moment,” the BAYC tweeted. “Available tomorrow at 9AM PT/12PM ET on http://store.bayc.com”

 

The capsule includes framed BAYC and Curtis artwork, stickers, and a black and gold hat that gives off country club vibes, like something you’d see dockside at a marina.

“Damn this hat is actually fucking good,” BAYC member Gene tweeted. “Love the colors, love the skull on the front, and the “Members Only” on the back…. Admittedly I’m not a dad hat guy (is this a dad hat design??), but this is very ON BRAND given what they announced earlier today about what it feels like to be a “Yacht Club”. I’m buying it. I’m rocking it. I love it!”

 

 

Looking ahead, Apes can expect to see even more Yacht Club themes, vibes, and looks around the swamp as BAYC sets sail into the future.

“We’ve also been thinking about what it actually means to be a Yacht Club - not just the name, but the feeling behind it,” the BAYC tweeted. “That’s starting to take shape. From here on out, you’ll see it show up more clearly in our apparel, our collaborations, and an aesthetic that finally does the Yacht Club name justice.”

 

 

The Gazette will continue to follow the club’s turn toward the Yacht Club and will keep you posted on tomorrow’s drop. Stay tuned for updates!
