People need to stop slating BAPE. Stop making excuses about why you don’t own a pair and saying BAPE products are crap just to make yourself feel better when the real reason is that you just simply can’t afford it. Loads of brands copy the era design, even Gucci.
Hating on BAPE only gives them fame.

Nigo pays homage to these brands by using there silhouette. I dont see vans saying anything about it, and you wont. This dosen’t hurt there business, it only helps.

This dude keeps raping the street wear fashion business and these young kids who follow… he’s killing it at these ridiculous price point too. Design is costing him nothing since he’s just biting everything that’s been out and classic. Production is costing him nothing as well as these molds are not unique either. Call me a hater if you want I’m just putting it out there because this extremely disrespectful to “design”. He is really caking it with other company’s shit! Will anyone ever put a stop to it, because this dude is really making a fool out all his followers. I appreciate what Hypebeast is and has been doing in general but ya’ll feeding into it too. Hope you approve and post this… my beef is not with Hypebeast at all!

This is some real pathetic desperate bullshit. I honestly think BAPE is folding.

Man! A LOT of heat against these. I can see where you’re coming from; they’re just a Vans Era with some Camo. Personally though, I think they’re a pretty damn good Vans Era.

you made a classic shoe, that looked better without the ugly camoflage more expensive then before and simply stole the idea. Whoever buys this is an epic hypebeast who just buys it for the brand.
