Asian Fashion: BAPE
Written by Ming on November 20, 2008
A review of the extremely popular Japanese clothing brand, BAPE, aimed towards young affluent adults who are into urban street wear.
Finally a true Asian brand that appeals to both celebrities and the general population. BAPE (A Bathing Ape) is a Japanese Brand that is pretty popular with hip hop artists all around the world ranging from Kanye West and Pharrell to Big Bang. The exclusiveness of this brand is what makes it really desirable. The material and artwork of the brand is also some of the best that you will find. Outside of Japan there are a grand total of 4 BAPE stores. There is only 2 stores in the United States that sell genuine BAPEs (LA and NY). As such, BAPE is a very exclusive brand that only the wealthy can afford. The price range varies depending on what item you are looking to buy, but almost all of the items are over $100. If you're not in the highest income bracket, then wearing BAPEs will make you look like a wannabe who bought fakes.
The merchandises of BAPE include T-Shirts, jeans, belts, watches, caps and shoes. Bape's most famous items have got to be their "Bapesta" shoes and their colorful hoodies. With a high demand and limited quantities there are many many fakes circulating online. It's extremely difficult to purchase real BAPE clothing online; your best bet in buying real BAPE is to take a trip to New York if you live in the United States.
Even though BAPE is expensive and very hard to find, the clothes are refreshing and very unique. BAPE is aimed more towards the urban and underground crowd so if you want to put yourself above the crowd and wear some quality clothing BAPE is the brand for you.
