A Bathing Ape?

Once upon a time I was a fan of a bathing ape but I realized they have been doing exactly the same thing forever now using the same patterns and switching the colorways they are a perfect example of how mastermind marketing and convincing people that you know what's cool can compensate for the fact that the quality of their stuff is not great and its all way too similair nigo is so far from a trendsetter that whole brand just sucks

some of his stuff is innovative but theres a lot of hype in the brand.

I see so much bape stuff on a daily basis. I'm guessing about 95% is bootleg.

The supply of authentic BAPE is so limited. I agree that most are knockoffs or fake.

limited supply is what makes the brand. if it was readily available the brand would flop in 6 months.
