Bathing Ape A/W 06/07

[Guest Fade to Black]

liking bape is the new not liking bape. for real.

eh i've always had a love/hate thing for Bape...on one hand i like the general vibe and aesthetics of the stuff, on the other i'm not down with the poor quality and reselling/hype culture that revolves around it.

I really like that Sta Hoodie. I wonder if they do anything special to the cut for women or if I could rock it.

You can wear it! They will be releasing an Apee version (girl) and a guys one.

[Decades]

As much as I dislike Bape, I must say Nigo is a hell of a businessman. Getting kids to pay ridiculous prices for ugly hoodies is a fine art.

[ge0ffzilla]

Ridiculous prices is relative to how much you make or how much your parents make...even how much you are willing to pay.

I don't find $220 (Japan Retail) too bad when Dior Homme hoodies are $350+

nice, thanks for the info

[rocker4life]

they are actually making some good stuff now...hope they won't be too overpriced(!)

[joanah]

The first jacket is kind of cool, although it looks a little early 1990s but I'd still rock it.

[ikidomari]

yeah, bape stuff is so much better when there aren't giant BAPE letters all over the damn thing too

[aitsuka]

damn, better not let my girl see this thread..

[englandmj7]

thanks for the pics.

[boystory]

this is exactly the same as everything else they've ever done.

[ge0ffzilla]

They do rehash a lot of stuff. But overall I think this collection is pretty cool. Better than F/W...

The greatly anticipated Tiger hoodie (these scans courtesy of fateuk)

Does anyone know who makes these sunglasses?

[Bing Bing]

^Those are Louis Vuitton Millionaire Sunglasses. Cost about a G, if you can even find them. Marc Jacobs had a similar pair a couple seasons ago for a couple hundred.

[Demronick]

^^ that would be LV sunnies

i like the orange/white varsity jacket, keep it nice and simple

plus orange is my fave colour

[Murakami]

I didnt think anyone around here liked Bape ?

[sean_]

well put, I agree.

some time ago when its hyped a bit differently I was rocking a few tees and stuff but since then they're stuff got a bit worse, the hype got worse and I started dressing a bit differently

[djrajio]

Still shit in my opinion. Can I buy the duck?

[herpsky]

the new york store had em for 115

Does anyone have the Hat that guy is wearing? the Fitted!

I need a 7 1/4

[2000dB]

I saw an old lady (probably 70) walk out of the bape store today with two bags full. It made me (and my other schoolgirl friends) giggle for a few seconds.

[A.L.]

Herpsky-I know the store had them, but totally missed out:confused:

I need a reseller!

[Guest Berget__]

I like bape in general. The neon hoodies are nice and camo jackets are always nice.

edit: post #333. Im half evil!

[Guest Berget__]
