:yeshrug: Camel still jock nikkas heavy. And Bape been fell off brogod. They will NEVER reach the levels Nigo was able to bring the brand to unfortunately. Bape will do well forever because it has already been cemented in history, just like Supreme.
:ohhh:

Bape is everywhere if they played out then its their own fault

Diamond been fell off i remember when all my cousins little friends started talkin about it like it was the greatest shyt ever i knew diamond became fukkboy gear shyt became the new OBEY

Supreme is still cool but now that i know i can just go to Round2 in LA and cop some for the Low that shyt aint that special to me no more.


honestly now i just focus on my shoe/accessory game cuz these brand fall off way too fast or they get played the fukk out in a few months

Supreme also does the same thing over and over again. They just make different versions of the box logo with every release. Supreme collabs aren't even really collabs they just put the red preme tag on it and mark the price up 200%. Ion keep anybody in my circle who would drop upwards of $100 on this bullshyt

Nah in reality bape has just been collabing out the ass to make up for the fact that they are just gonna recycle the same ideas Nigo was using when he left. I can't say any rapper or rappers brought it back
BAPE hasnt been the same since nigo left and it bought it out.

Dj Mustard was wearing that AAPE stuff and that basically the teeny bopper zumiez version of Bathing Ape.

Bape been poppin. I always kept a few pieces since 02 I've been collecting. nikkas are just hopping on a wave they never knew how to ride. Back in 05 when BBC and Bape was the in the to wear rappers went into overkill mode and almost killed it. Real collectors and people who respect the brand just kept collecting and wearing. Rappers always take a brand and run it into the ground just to be noticed.
