Bapesta! Uptempo: Rejected size 9 sample model?

[The Locust]

What do you guys think? Definitely something out of the norm. These were the only shots my boy sent me, but I've seen these in person; the lining is full premium leather, the white midsole (connecting to the grey soles near the back) is very very soft, like polycushioning found in tennis shoes. I kinda dig the whole "Footballers" look.

No word on if these were released in more colorways, and there is a POSSIBILITY these were actually released but I haven't ever seen these anywhere besides my boy's shoe drawer.

Discuss.

Wow looks cool - but not colorful enough to be a bapesta!

[Syko]

not somethin i would wear, but its definetly interesting!

[Wereboy]

Nice, but if Nigo's gonna vary the breed I'd way prefer a hitop

[CactusBri]

props on the pics. but thats one ugly shoe !

[The Locust]

It's definitely not an award winning shoe for design, but it's definitely a conversation starter.

[Anjinzuka01]

I think pulling something like that from the vault is fresh... nice pic. I'de rock it and make them work...

[apc]

really not feeling them, but i assume they were designed for football / sporting use anyway..

[Moneyispower23]

not feeling them, loc im almost positive they were previously release, there a regular cat thats a regular at bws, he has them in black, when i saw them i was like wtf? we talked and he said these are mad old. They didnt look fapish to me plus he comes to the store all the time.

[dcoop18]

really dont like them.

couldnt have said it better myself :o

[Sun O.C.]

Those things look like some Bapesta's David Beckham would wear.
LOL

[Bagimana]

i like them,I def rock those.

WORD
lace up, head out, gyms the next stop, then off to the courts.

[ayoungbape]

for some reason i like them....=) i would buy them different colours would be nice though just to see how they look

[Ricer]

Another similar version of a nike shoe, I have a pair like that...they were soccer boots which were converted i& released as sneakers for indoor soccer etc

They were like these only without the studs & slightly different

[D-E-V-I-N]

There not bad, I would wear them. Could use some color though.

[x6astronot9x]

looks like an indoor sports shoe ie for soccer or baseball pitching and cage hitting.

[MrFrizz]

they look pumaish

[Bape_lovers]

nvr seen it b4...its okie i guess..

[problemchild909]

its funny how they called them uptempo's because nike has a shoe out called uptempo...but looks nothing like those.

I would most deffinatly rock those if i got my hands on em'. Nice find Loc.

[Notorious]

i think those are SICK! i'd def cop in a size 11.

[Gasolinecans691]

i think those are SICK! i'd def cop in a size 11.

that's wat i was gonna say!:mad: :D

[Moneyispower23]

um take it easy children, not worth bape prices for these

[Mr.Me Too]

there cool but not my steezze

[P@D3]

^^ I think they would be a lot or at least a bit cheaper than regular bapestas or roadstas,, jus IMO

[jayjay]

im sorry but since when was bape a sporting brand

you cant wear those with jeans and if your gonna play sports why not buy from a brand with sporting reputation not from one which puts monkeys all over hoodies

these shoes must be worn with sporting gear because if not you will look very stupid...and when playing sports seriously do you really care if your shoes are colourful or patent?

i bet in the bape vault...bape has attempted to copy nearly every single style of nike shoe ever produced...but havent released any because its the wrong move

just possibly this shoe could be a faker becoming innovative (just a guess..im not calling it fake locust)

oh and im not a hater because...i like bape and actually do have some unlike the gangstaaaa posers

[levisxclot]

Nice? how much will it be?

[The Locust]

My boy is selling it off for $250. Few members interested, none have paid.

check my signature for my paypal address if you're interested. Peace!

[levisxclot]

250US shipped? or? how much to ship to Singapore?

[soulchild12]

I don't understand this shit.

[Kokomilk]

I don't understand this shit.

i think so too

[bigdunks]

nice pic but they should never release that shoe. i want to see more skullsta's!!!

[Icecreamape]

All of you must be on some good weed to want to pay 250 shipped for those shits. They're not ugly but not worth more than bapestas or roadies. Give me some of that meth so I can like these sneaks too please.

[fiveagain]

i've seen them in black. still not a big fan.

[1_i_Will_e]

Yeah i dont like em... but hey at least Bape is doing something sorta different it still looks like the Nike Campu imo but yeah good luck for those who like hopefully youll get that release
