I think its a definate must cop and I hope you can change the colors of the hoodies. Think of the combos, Red/Black, white/black. Or if you never got a Bape full camo you can make blue/blue or black/black. What do you think??

NO, Nigo is running out of ideas and he is just smashing shit together [literally] and throwing it out there.

what is funny is that true bapeheads and true supporters of bape are soooo mind blowned about a new drop that they will HAVE to buy the item even if it is really ugly..for example, i bet no one thinks that the tiger hoody that just was relesed is an awsome hoodie. they might really think that its very ugly, but yet they have to buy it because its bape..nigo is a very smart and rich man.i bet if he made a hoodie witch he wiped his but with, there would be a line out side of bwsny to buy it.

it will sell obviously but that will be the least selling color
im just getting a bit confused
if pink is with red
Blue will be with Purple
Black will be with White (this will be the big seller of course)
where will green go ?
retail will be close to $350 i think (prices always raise)
Then they might even crystal these out the season after ?

Green probably with blue? Might not even release a green. This aint ugly in my opinion. I think you can mix the colors up and maybe make a black and black or white/white which will be beyond good. I agree no 1 but weezy f baby (lol) will buy that red and pink 1 but black/white is serious heat.

^^^^ true.... its all about originality.... but i just think the hoodie is really un-original

yea it is i agree with you id rather him just re release another set of generation crystals for those who lucked out and for those who want more =)
maybe even rerelease more sharks too i wouldnt mind, no1 would
im sure it would decrease resell value but hey, fuck resellers...... NOT
something original would be to maybe put the B A P E somewhere else
maybe
B
A
P
E
???? im not sure but he can do better and im sure he will

It looks like the 2 parts are actualy seperate so you can try different combinations if they release more colorways.

I consider myself a bapehead, but if its ugly its ugly and i dont buy. For Example, that fish hoody thing, is horrible. The tiger i actually do like alot despite all the talk. Its not a shark but definetly one of my favorites of 2006. And on another level bro, people sometimes cop to re - sell very smart flip. The tiger was a good example you cop it for 250 ( jp) sell it to the bapeheads in the us who dont live by a bws or didnt get a raffle number for 1000 usd. Smart IMO.

^ Look slike it since the zipper continues on the back of the hood
but like you can't put 2 colors together since they're on the same side..

No, not feelin' it at all. But the most important question is: as far as you're concerned, is it a must cop?
Peace.

why does everybody think "oh the Tiger is the ugliest thing ever, so everybody else must think it's ugly" Just becuz u think it's really ugly doesn't mean everyone else thinks it's ugly. after seeing it first hand it's pretty cool hoody.

they shud have instead of the standard B A P E, "pharrell's" on top in a nice script font and then right under it "D I C K" in the same style as B A P E
even though i think this hoodie isn't lookin bad, it definetly shows that nigo is running out of ideas. with this mix and match feature, he could basically apply it to every single hoodie hes created.
It would be funny if he did a half tiger half shark:D

Im not an Expert but the only way this is a must cop is if the jackets are inner-changable... like zip one half off then put another half of another color on...
in my opinion, BAPE needs some new designers.
Im up for the task haha.

haha i agree...
this hoodie is god-awful
haha i agree...
this hoodie is god-awful
word. theres a brand here in sapporo that had the same idea already.
the zipper hook is the same on thats on the duck, fish, alien, whatever the hell is hoody that NIGO is wearin in the new catalog. i think its to hold your shades.
im not sure who the major players are for BAPE designers, but they seriously need a different point of view. the japanese eye for fashion is different from that of a person from the US and that of a person from France.

Your making it sound like theres gonna be zippers down the back of these so you can interchange with all colors. That is highly fuckin unlikely.
BUKIsunrise
01-01-2007, 03:30 PM
it is interchangable.

what are you talking about, havent you ever seen a hoody like this.
that is exaclty what it is. you will be able to interchange the left and right
sides with several different camos.

LOC posted that they are interchangable with different stores getting different sides like one store might get blk/white and another white/black (the sides are flipped) LOC KNOWS HIS SHIT

this is a old idea at this point... nike has been doing the spit hoodie for years... Bal is doing it too. Not feelin these, but if they float your boat, good for ya!

01-01-2007, 05:04 PM
So then the zipper runs all the way down your back as well?
I like the concept but won't it look stupid having a zipper on your back???
CausingChaos
01-01-2007, 05:07 PM
^^^^ I don't think you would actually see the metal part of the zipper. If you look at the front of the hoodie the metal is hidden (im assuming the back would be the same)

01-01-2007, 05:24 PM
oooo ok I see now. thanks
i think it could be kind of fresh to mix and match. just worried for all the people with no style out there tho..lol.

Q
How would you get a full camo put together? Wouldnt each half have two letters. (Either BA or PE) I'm guessing the lettering is done in ONE pattern only.

01-01-2007, 10:23 PM
I cant wait for this to drop. I would like to buy the red/pink and the blue/purple. I think its a real cool move for bape to make hoodies like this.

Get what you like. Personally, it looks stupid. It's just a rip of Nike's split hoodies.

No more than Bapestas are a rip of of Nike AF1s, Skullstas are a rip of Adidas Superstars
Nigo has been ripping off other people ideas for ages. I personally think this hoody looks awful. Its clearly an attempt to really get money out of people, as you wont be able to buy one and will end up having to buy all of them.
Its like when people release an album on separate 12 inch records, you end up paying about £40 for one album.
