my trip to bws nyc today..

[best name ever]

it was awful..

they didnt have anything good....only thing good is the chompers on the spinning display thing..

i went upstairs..and they didnt have shit...i swear i think i saw the same 2 bapestas take up like 8 of those little display glass box things..those ugly green wit the purple sta's..and the green and gray ones..

has anybody bought those?...for the last 2 months theyve been on display...i mean damn, nobody wants them..sell 'em for like 100 or somethin..GET RID OF THEM

they had a lot of t shirts though..some dude copped like 15 random shirts..and the lady he was with had that bape member credit card shit i think..they accept that out here?..maybe i'm wrong

anyway...anybody else feel my pain?

the chick wit the mohawk was killin it with the outfit today though..

[MystaX]

To be honest, the NYC store is the worst one. They never have a great selection. Only in fall/winter you might see some great stuff. All the overseas stores carry the hot hoodies, shirts, and shoes. Next time, go to Flight Club. They have Bapes that arent for sale in the store yet, or are in the window.

[Cre-Hated]

lmfao i was there 2day too and there aint shit in that mutha fucca. no shirts worth buying, no jeans, and worst of all there was no bapestas just those dumb ass green on white shits...they had like 4 rows of that on display........its been this way 4 a while now. but i here the supposed 2 be gettin some ill shit in there some time soon.

atmospheric changes. the store just isn't the same as it used to be is what he is saying. it's true.

[TSM-in-N.Y.]

^ I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything but what do you mean by "atmospheric" changes?

When did you start seeing these changes? What do you think caused them?


Your friend, TSM-in-N.Y.


EDIT: Spelling

[MystaX]

I think what caused this change was: JD in the I think they like me video, Chris Brown in the run it video, Lil Wayne in the Fireman and Hustla Music videos...

EDIT: Spelling
The staff changed like Whoa..the managment changed a little bit..and its just differnt over all..i used to go in there a lot to say whats up to the people that worked there..no when i go in..i feel like i dont know anyone anymore..

[best name ever]

i respect lil wayne for what he's done with the bape shit..

he wears it like nobody else..you gotta give him that

JD is just a well known follower though..follow his history..

this ***** is known to jump on every trend and overkill it til it fades out..

chris brown doesnt really seem like a big "bape head" though..so he doesnt bother me either..

theres nothing wrong with anybody wearing it actually..who gives a shit?

[C to the J L]

nah im not talking about the people that wear it..im talking about the NYC store..

[unlimitedchirp]

yeah last time i peeked in there i was getting grilled by the door guy.

had to laugh out loud at that shit, like i'm sorry im not cool enough to look at your baby monkey hoodies and crayola air forces, strictly for gangstaz!

remember when buying clothes was fun?

[Wizard]

Literally, the NYC store seems ridiculous. I live in London and while at first the staff seem a bit frosty if you chat to them they are generally happy to talk to you. Sounds as though the guys in the NYC shop need to chill a little.

However by far the thing that would piss me off is the way the staff cop every single hyped item leaving nothing for the public. I would go mad if i'd gone to the shop only to be told that there weren't gonna be any white camo hoodies or whatever. I've got a mate in New York and he's been to a few of the drops recently such as the camo caps, bling camo, og purple camo hoody etc. and every time basically every 'hyped' one is gone. The management need to sort that out...

word i went to the bape store today and they had the same thing in every box. only difference was they switched which was the shoe was turned

You will all be happy to know that JD his shed his bapes for flags and straps.


I can't wait to see my fellow negros wear it and TRY to say they've always thought it was cool or "I like that kind of stuff."




Makes me spit.

Yes there does seem to be quite a few new employees there.

For me the place seemed to go downhill around last Oct.-Nov.

It was never easy for me to get stuff in my size but starting last fall all I was able to cop was one hoody the whole season. Whenever I went on a day where they had a raffled off item I never got one. Not like I was the only one who got screwed but I seemed to have pretty bad luck.
