BAPE
A BATHING APE PIRATE STORE
0Two new ‘A Bathing Ape BAPE Pirate Stores’ have opened in Japan. They have popped up before in the U.S.A. in September and December 2009. They opened a Bathing Ape Pirate Store in Melrose, California during the christmas holidays from December 26th – 30th. And earlier in September, they had opened a Bathing APE Pirate Store in New York City. Obviously, they had great success and are now doing the same in Japan. They also have a BAPE Pirate Store in Kobe, Japan and Kuruizawa, Japan. The stores in U.S.A. were only temporary stores, but I havn’t seen any dates indicating the new stores in Japan will only be temps. I hope they keep them open full-time and then open a full-time Bathing Ape Pirate Store in New York.
Also. they have released a 1 year anniversary shirt for the Bathing Ape Pirate Store with the opening of the two new locations.
I have put together a gallery of the interior photos of the Bathing Ape Pirate Stores. Check them all out below.
Mr. BAPE – Bape Suits
0A Bathing APE (BAPE) has just released their professional suit line called Mr. BAPE. The release date was March 25th so the store is now open for people to start buying. The collection is very nice, and would not look inappropriate in a corporate environment. The ties have the BAPE camo pattern on them and come in a wide range of colours.
Here is a full list of the items in the collection so far and there prices in Japanese YEN.

A Fishing APE
0It looks like BAPE is branching off into all sorts of markets lately. They released the BAPE Gallery a couple weeks ago which offered school/office furniture and in the past they have teamed up with Pepsi and Nintendo. Now BAPE has created “A Fishing APE” offering a range of fishing products. All the products look really good and are made with high quality materials as expected from BAPE.
I really like the fishing lures, they look awesome and I bet they would work well.
The series includes BAPE fishing jackets, BAPE scuba gear, BAPE fishing rods, BAPE fishing lures, and some BAPE sunglasses, hat, and chino pants. Check out the gallery below to see photos of all the items.
