Need Some Bape Info

[randomsuper]

i'm sure there are lots of people who know a lot more about these kicks than i do so i figured i'd ask here. i want to pick up a set of bape kicks but from what i understand these shoes get bootlegged big time. my question is how do you know if the shoes are real and does anyone know where i can get some for a decent price. big time noob as far as bapes go so any help is appreciated.

yeah, just to let you know the more expensive the clothes are the better, no matter how bad of a quality.

don't waste your money. bapestas died along with all over print everything. bootlegging and biting KILT bape.

only worthwhile bapestas are un 11th's, 11th's, and a few of the marvel series. you're not gonna find any of those anymore though unless you're very lucky. go to the clothes thread, though.

:D I'd say a good 90 percent of all bape in america is FAPE(fake bape) real bape is only sold at bape stores. There's some real sell sites that sell them that will rape you. General rule if you see bapesta kicks for less then 200 they fake. 90 dollars is the stander fake price.

Only bape store in the US is in new york(Soho) I've also heard UNION LA sells real bape also. Theres some online resell sites that sell bape but you're going to pay rape prices.

Theres no such thing as a bape bargin bin so if they price is low it's fake even used bapes can sell up to 160 ish anything around 100 or under is fake :). If you have any questions just ask :)

also bapes are far from dead :) people say that a lot now adays but if you see the line of people waiting when a new drop comes out, you would see it's far from dead.

^those are like 85% resellers (which tend to be foreigners, if you're talking about japan) and homeless ppl that ppl are paying to resell.

only worthwhile bapestas IMO (at least the only thing *I* want from bape now) :

jacobs <3

in bape kicks i have what i wanted, Silver Surfers,Cap Ams, coffee chompers I mean who's making good kicks now a days. New line of sb's are ass :D well okay I lied I still want. Taipeis, londons, AM/PMs/NYs

[debs]

those too. i always wanted a pair of jacobs...had the chance but wasn't going to drop like 300 + shipping on them. had the chance to cop a few "OG" patent pairs (japanese coffee's with the lighter shade of pink, OG pink camo's, etc.) but decided not to for one reason or another. i'd kill for some 11th's or un 11ths in that colorway, though.

the stuff the thread starter should be looking at IMO are:

-a lot of the kaws collaboration stuff
-some of the older bape t shirt designs
-bapestas from 2003-2004
-a shark hoodie, preferably not the ultimate camo one
