After graduating from high school, Ichiki Kuraishi decided to go to the United States and chose school of visual arts, where celebrities gathered. Judging from the time, KAWS of 1996 should be Cang Shi's brother. After graduation, Yimu Kuraishi returned to Tokyo and worked as an image designer in NOWHERE Ltd, located in its gold BAPE.

Later, through Nao Tomomi, Cang Shi got to know Ian Brown, the singer he admired for a long time, and Gary Aspden, the consultant of Adidas UK branch.

This meeting became the opportunity for the birth of Adidas' representative works Super Ape Star and Super Ape Skates in 2003. After this cooperation, Cang Shi left BAPE and joined Adidas as creative project manager.
