Toronto Head-Is Lounge selling fake Bape?

[kracksnack]

Looks pretty suspect to me, anyone seen there stuff yet? I'm not a bape head so I can't tell you %100 for sure, guess that's why I'm on here asking.

[Circa]

Lounge is legit.

[kracksnack]

Really? Ok. Any others care to comment whether real or fake at lounge?

[jolly]

supposedly they're just going over to busy workshop in nyc and re-selling that shit here...

but a lotta dudes on nt said they're fake.

who you gonna trust?

no luck

Where is lounge, what else do they have?

[super_steve]

if the prices are cheap, i would suspect it's fake

they had fake evisu jeans a few years ago....selling for like 80$

lounge is wack

[RAYOK]

The bapesta's in the window are most definitely fake.

Where is Lounge, what else do they sell?

[canice]

lounge's sister store called suite 99 at diesel fitness sells more bapestas, i'm pretty sure they're real.

lounge is at john and queen. the shirts look legit but the shoes are dodgy.

I was at lounge, those hoodies are so damn fake. Just buy a fake one on the internet for 150CAD instead of 450CAD.

or, y'know, don't buy it

[Good]

I'm not the biggest fan of Lounge either, but the Bathing Ape products they carry are all legit.

[eldave04]

I m pretty sure they are fake, just look at the apehead paper tag attached to the jacket - the face is so yellow when it should be a more brownish orange.

I know in the past the kicks were legit, but that may have been just a few pairs, its not my place to say but Im assuming it was partially legit and partially fake in terms of apparrel. When you have a few pieces that look alright, ownership may assume that clients will think the whole store is legit and purchase a few fake pieces too.

Im not sure about now adays but with BAPE t-shirts a few years back if you checked the tag that folded over in between the fold there was a hologram...so i would just check for that

ALL ARE FAKE -

I know the hood cat who is selling Lounge and all the shops on Younge street the fakes on consignment.

Lounge is such a sad shop.

Damon started out so ill about ten years ago and turned Wack in under 2.

Too bad

[Circa]

I wouldn't have assumed so, based on the fact that his Evisu was most definitely legit. I'm not a BAPE head so I have no clue. Not to mention his other gear (Adidas x WE, Tight knicks etc.) which I know was purchased from reps.

[eldave04]

his evisu def legit, which makes it suck even more that his bape shit is fake

[boystory]

where the hell is lounge?

[eldave04]

just north of queen on john on the east side

[triniboy27]

yah, think next to the starbucks patio on john....been in there once and the dude tried to give me this whole spiel on evisu and how they're exclusive blah blah blah, etc.

Never went back since then so no clue what's up there.

[keVn]

anyone know where they sell legit bape stuff?

[red120]

Wow, couldn't tell that they were fake. Lucky that I didn't buy any, however..

Does anyone know what other shops in Toronto (Bloor, Queens) are trying to sell fake stuff as real?

[pacioli]

I realize you're talking about the Lounge store in Toronto (?). There's also a Lounge in NYC on Broadway bet. Houston and Prince...any idea if the two are related?

[jasonm]

the only reason why i would think lounge sells fake shit is that there isnt that much of a mark-up.

from what they've told me they just pick some shit up whenever they're in nyc.

they dont normally have much bape, i pop my head in there every so often and i havnt seen any bape in there since late summer.

your better off without that crap anyway.

[sr20det]

lounge WAS nice when they were on the 2nd floor... ah, memories of 2blackguys and 40 acres and a mule

[sneakerstar]

You got any pictures of the bapestuff they are selling? I can spot a fake in sek.

[homi29]

everything i heard has indicated that its fake

Matt Babel from Much even was rockin a fake hoodie that he likely copped from there

some places on yongue have some whack fake shit too, ALOT of fake EVISU

[triniboy27]

To hell with Matte Babel and the rest of those MuchMusic VJs...those fuckers are incompetent...the only good one is Sarah Taylor.

[showbiz00ditc]

haha yea i dont watch much but while im flipping through i always get so mad at them their so dumb. how is Babel on the It List?

one time i was walking by lounge n Babel and some guy were laughing at my union 180's ... i think... maybe they were chcekin em out i dunno. but he calls himself a sneakerhead. he gave kanye west a pair of air max 180's. some ugly pair that've been on sale for ages

VJ search here i come.
