  • You May Think You’re Cool But Trust Me You’re Not Fan Cool

    Even if you’re Asian, just no: Trust BAPE to dive head first into ultra niche soft goods.  This is something I’d expect your drug dealers cool aunt to have on her wall.  Right away my mind just wrongly went to assuming this is display fan and not a functional fan.  If you’re a hypebeast you’ll…

  • BAPE Camouflage Vans Ripoff Attempt Falls Short

    Colorway: subdued Fraggle Rock? I don’t even know what that camouflage pattern is supposed to be, but that designer was obviously on one.  “Explosive Camo” hey?  Sure buddy, whatever you say.

  • BAPE x Ferrari – The Ugliest Camouflage Collab Ever

    Fuggitaboutit.  A collab for the ugly record books: BAPE is one of those companies like Supreme… they will jump at the opportunity to do a collab with anyone big, regardless the outcome.   The items are “limited edition” so I’m sure they will sell like hotcakes, even though they look like they should be in…
