   They didn’t do a lot to it, it’s almost the same just with less Tees.

   may:
   that doesnt make it any better tho, since the priority order is japan > usa > europe. london doesnt get much of the good stuff. ive been there a few times and i cant say its up to par with the other stores. i would love it to be, since its the one closest to me – but its just not.

   actually stm, the london bape store was the first international bape store to be opened outside of japan. they closed it, and it’s now reopened.

   Such a a struggling old story…retail space isnt nice at all. and the legendary question still gets asked…”So what is the difference between a Fake and a Bape”

   no wonder Nigo stepped away…

    I think it looks great, and by what bape has been coming out with lately, they’re not dead.

    @Ali B:

    Bape died a long time ago. It’s not the 90s anymore.
