DAMN IF THATS TRUE, Nigo is probably the most successful Clothing owner...but bape should not customize sneakers...thats how they will lose their exclusiveness

If Bape did that I would be really mad, they would be ugly and Nigo has made way more then 1 mill.

NIGO has got HOUSES...ONe house isn't big enough for all his toys..Haha...In 2002 (I read) NIGO made already $30 million....This was way before most of the people on this forum started wearing BAPE....So...I guess he prolly earned like $150 million instead of $30...And NOOOO....Bape should not let people customize sta's...The brand is already a huge succes in Japan and the US....bringing up something would kill the brand....Just let NikeID be NikeID...and let Bape be Bape....

It's simple math. One hoodie probably costs $10.00 tops to make(Consider the massive wholesale rates he must get on supplies) and he turns around and flips that same hoodie for $200. I know retail is more than that, but I am just using $200 for the sake of example. That's $180.00 profit for every hoodie. Lets say if one run of hoodies is 1,000 units. That's $180,000 made off of one release. And how many different releases are there in a year? And that's also using the highest amount I could imagine it costing to make a hoodie and the lowest amount they would flip it for.

A lot of my numbers are way off, I am sure. But the point stays the same.

^ i doubt they cost 10$ to make they are really good quality

But keep in mind how much of the high quality materials they buy. Quanitity discounts, brah.

As for the person who asked why fapers don't have equal quality items, fapers are not making nearly as many of these items as Bape is, keep in mind that it's not one company making all the fake shit, but rather many VERY small operations make them, so they have to buy material at retail more often than not, so they save money by using lower quality materials.

Sony > Nigo > 1 million dollars

This is a fuking retarted thread though... Nigo's got a ton of cash... he's not worth as much as one of the largest companies in the world (Sony)... he's not close to being the most successful designer in the world... The people who produce fape don't have the advanced machinary that Bape uses nor do they care about the quality of their product they are cheap knock offs... Fake knock off hoodies sell for about 60 bucks how could they produce the same quality at something that costs 5 times that?? lastly if you are an idiot that doesn't know shit about anything least of all bape... please don't start a thread with rediculous ideas that got against the basic principles of the company... But I'm sure you could find those see through batmans you've been dying to create on ebay for 49.95... rock em proud dude!

It wouldn’t surprise me man but that would most probs because of Jay Z right? Nigo said himself in interviews Jay z was one of the first celebrities in the US wearing bapestas etc at his concerts. So in to Nigo it’s like returning a favor or being humble. Much like how Verbal has his custom ones.

But this thread has become pretty crazy, wouldn’t surprise me if he has made over $35,000,000 He said he has plans to open a hotel as well didn’t he? You would need quite a bit for that ;)

Actually, Pharrell designed the Bape high heel sta...They were only made for her....At least...That's what she said on making the video...And NIGO has made faaaaaar more money than $35 million...It would rather be $135 million..

Very good article...NIGO says he and Pharrell are real good mates...But P gives him good publicity...So...at the end of the day...It's all business
B.T.W.....Bape isn't an imperium...It's a lifestyle...NIGO said it in an interview...Bape doesn't only make clothes...they sell food, you can get a hair cut, there is a bape gallery...In the future perhaps a bape hotel....Just so people can have a comfy wealthy lifestyle...I mean think about it...There even is Bape toilet paper..It can't be more obvious then that
