0While I am uploading more of my BAPE Concepts, I figured I should upload these Street Fighter BAPESTA designs that I created after my BAPE + CAPCOM post. Stay tuned for the BAPE + WU TANG concept products.

BAPE Concepts: A Bathing Ape + Wu-Tang Wu-Wear
0Aside from being a huge fan of BAPE, I have also been a long time fan of the Wu Tang Clan. I have been listening to their music since the early 90’s and still do (I listened to them today even). So naturally, while working on my BAPE concept ideas; I thought that it would be awesome if BAPE and WU TANG teamed up for a limited line of clothing. This would be a perfect match, as Wu Tang already has a line of clothing called Wu Wear. The Wu-Tang Clan was founded and created in Staten Island in New York state so I can guarantee that if BAPE + WU TANG items were placed in the New York City BAPE Store it would sell out in less then a day. They would probably have to close the store down early because everything would be purchased within hours.
I really hope NIGO, or someone at A Bathing Ape finds this and decides to make it happen. Or, if the RZA comes across this, I know he can make it happen. RZA and NIGO would make an awesome team and I know RZA likes Japanese culture so who knows, maybe they will come out with something.
A BATHING APE / SANRIO BABY MILO STORE

BAPE is on a roll this year for collaborations with other companies. I think this is a good idea on BAPE’s part because it creates additional unique styles which the brand wouldn’t have been able to do prior. This time around, it looks like they have teamed up with San Rio the creators of Hello Kitty. I can’t say that I’m a fan of Hello Kitty but I am sure that this line of items is going to sell well with women. The current selection of womens clothing from BAPE is pretty lacking which is unfortunate for all our feminin friends. One thing I am surprised about with the BAPE San Rio release is the ammount of different items they have. They went all out! There is t-shirts, hoodies, pants, skirts, baby bibs, baby one piece sleep suits, shopping bags, shoes, neck ties, necklaces, wrist watches, coffee mugs, hand towels, food place mats, wallets, purses, duffle bags and a hat. That is a lot of stuff!
One thing which I think is really cool is the baby shoe BAPESTAs. I also learned something new, apparently SANRIO has 5 other characters aside from Hello Kitty, apparently they are not cool enough to make it big. Also, anyone else notice the subliminal perverted star over the girl characters crotch? WTF!?!? Why couldn’t she be holding the star wand in her other hand so it is covering over nothing? I think the marketing industry is full of pervs as you see stuff like this in adds all the time. It is like an industry inside joke or something (Disney does stuff like that all the time).
Check out the rest of the collection in the pictures below, it is pretty extensive.
BAPE Concepts: CAPCOM + A Bathing Ape

Alright folks, here is my first BAPE concept. As the title says, I am hoping to one day see a collaboration between A Bathing Ape and Capcom.
In the past, BAPE has teamed up with Marvel and released some pretty amazing BAPE hoodies, tshirts, and bapestas. Marvel has branched out a lot similar to A Bathing Ape so they made a good team. Another company which Marvel has worked with is Capcom for the release of Marvel vs Capcom. I was thinking that a Capcom Street Fighter BAPE line would be awesome. I hope this happens, and I think the chances would be good since both companies are Japanese companies and I know A Bathing Ape has teamed up with a ton of other Japanese companies in the past, including Nintendo for the DS release. The series could be called BAPE vs CAPCOM.
