2007 was a significant year in street fashion because it was the year that streetwear connoisseurs in the States officially went back to wearing basic colors such as black.

A Bathing Ape has released a new line called the “Black Label” which the clothes in this collection will be predominately – black.

Their “Deeper Than Shadow” concept is to give customers a dark but luxurious feeling when shopping for some of their well made items.
