BAPEINFO.COM A BATHING APE – BAPE CONCEPTS
0
This year has been busy for A Bathing Ape. As we have seen, BAPE has release A Fishing APE, BAPE Pro Wrestling, Mr. BAPE, and the list goes on. So I started thinking of different companies that BAPE could team up with in order to create some limited edition items aside from the usual BAPESTA lines. Obviously, these are just for entertainment purposes and don’t actually represent BAPE. However, there is always the chance someone at BAPE or Nigo himself will see my concepts and run with it to create something awesome.
I am going to make a new page for this as well so that you can easily find all of the concepts. If you have any suggestions or want to submit your own concepts, then drop me a line in the comments.
New KAWS + BAPE BAPESTAs Released
0
BAPE has teamed up with KAWS to create some new BAPESTAs for this summer. As usual when BAPE and KAWS team up, the results are always amazing. Check out the detail on the shoes below and see for yourself. For those of you who don’t know KAWS, he is a well known graffiti artis from New Jersey, USA. Back in the 90’s KAWS produced vinyl figures, which he still does through his company Original Fake selling toys like Bearbrick, Wallbrick, etc… In 2003 at a BAPE Gallery, one of KAWS sculptures sold for $400,000 so him and Nigo are pretty good friends. Whenever KAWS Bapesta’s come out, they get snatched up pretty quickly so if you want a pair, you better act fast. The price for a pair is $260 which is a good price.
There are 10 different colour styles that have been released, check them all out below.
BAPE FIREFOX PERSONAS
0If you use Firefox and are looking to add some style to your browser, look no further. With the latest updates to Firefox, you can now add personas which are basically themes for your browser.
Here is a screenshot I took of my browser with a Baby Milo Camo Pattern. I am also using iGoogle which has a multi-colour BAPE camo pattern. If you are not already using igoogle, I suggest you do. It allows you to customize Google to your liking and you can add all sorts of modules to your search page. Anyway, back to the BAPE Firefox personas.
Below are pictures of the current BAPE personas available for Firefox.
Currently, these are all the themes available. It is actually quite a lot seeing as the Personas feature is relatively new to firefox. If you are not using the latest version of Firefox, you can install a plugin which will allow you to use the Personas themes feature.
Nigo’s Workshop – Hand Printed / Silk Screened T-shirts
0
For a limited time, you can get your own hand printed t-shirt. There are 6 designs to choose from. 5 of the designs feature Baby Milo in different samurai outfits. There is also one BAPE design featuring the ape head in different colours.
As you can see, the final result comes out pretty good. If you are in the area, you should definitely stop by and pick one up.
A BATHING APE + NEIGHBORHOOD = BROTHERHOOD
0
Japanese clothing companies, Neighborhood and A Bathing APE have teamed up to release a Brotherhood brand. Nigo is long time friends with Shinsuke Takizawa, the founder of Neighborhood so it seems like a good idea for them to team up with this new brand.
Check out below for pictures from the first release of Brotherhood clothing. So far, there is hoodies, t-shirts and some hi-top BAPESTAs. I look forward to seeing else they come up with as time goes on.
