The new year holidays brings forth the always-anticipated lookbook for Japanese streetwear pioneers A Bathing Ape. For the 2013 spring/summer collection, BAPE offers a release of new patterns and camouflage renditions, two of which are titled “hieroglyphic” and “explosive,” which will surely attract a lot of attention with fans and new adopters alike.
