Just checkin to see if we got any BAPE heads on Scionlife...post up if your down with the apes...no Fapes though
If you dont know what Im talking about, dont ask

 

Nigo and A Bathing Ape is overrated.

Just my opinion.

 

ok then...anyone else?
i dunno about overrated but overpriced...yes

 

nope no bapes.

maybe some J's every now and then. less J's now that i got my scion
but its coo

although i wouldnt mind getting the Fapes for about 70 bux. lol

 

someone say bapes?

 

Here's my homegurl sporting my baby milo.

 

my friend ( japanese friend in japan) got me this on my birthday.
he is BAPE addicted and got me one too

i dont know why he got me a large. its too big on me...

[/img]

 

im so lost

 

its just a really high end clothing lineup put out by a japanese designer...its urban wear and it aint cheap. Hoodies start at about $300, jeans about $400-$500

 

i wanted to get a hoody but there mad expensive

im a balla on a budget

 

you could always rock out the LRG gear...hotness but not that expensive

 

LRG is pretty dope too!

 

LRG sold out.

Yeah, SOLD OUT.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, then don't even
worry about that.

On the real, y'all are throwing out some cash for some clothing
that makes you look like a bag of skittles. I honestly don't
know why a lot of you people spend that much money.

Do your research on streetwear and you'll find gear 100x
cheaper but at the same time hyped up.

 

 

why do you think they sold out? Cause they arent a small underground company anymore and is ran by larger investors than what they initially started as? Business is business man and i hate to break it to you, but if you were the owner of the company and had a chance to expand your business you would too right? I dont actually rock LRG, but some of the older stuff is decent. Not that much a fan of the new stuff but Id rock an OG LRG hoodie.
And also the whole "skittles" comment, theres a lot more stuff out there than you know of I guess...I actually have a couple plain hoodies that dont make me look like a "bag of skittles". Look around, not everything is a cotton candy camo pattern.

 

i rock LRG. but the 2 shirts are black and grey, no skittles... haha

its not what you wear its how you wear it. whether its $5 or $500...

 

Everyone has their own opinion and style. Some people like the bag of skittles, some people don't. I personally don't care how much something costs(to an extent)...if I like it, I'll buy it.

The phrase is overused but "to each their own."

 

yes, exactly my point^^^^^^
and the name of the thread isn't called "Is there any bape haters" so lets keep the hater comments to ourselves....truth of the matter is, I bet 90% of the people on scionlife have no idea what we are even talking about

 

I'm not saying I HATE A Bathing Ape.

Show me where I said it and I'll bow down to you.

I simply said it's overrated.

We're all entitled to our opinion, yes? Yes.
It's a damn public forum.



Oh and about L-R-G...

I know people who work for L-R-G and I know people who
used to work for them also. So I know what's really down
with their company.

I bet if you really knew L-R-G's mission statement in the
early years and you look at what their doing now, it's nothing
but hypocrisy up in that studio.

(And it's not that 'Overground inventive, underground effective'
line you probably are thinking aboout.)

L-R-G is shady, end of story.

They steal a lot of independent artists' designs and copyright
them so that the artists that who actually came up with it,
can't do jack about it if they choose to bring up lawsuits.

Now, tell me that isn't some bull crap right there?



I'm going to make a bold statement next...

I probably know more about streetwear and fashion than anyone on
this forum. And if you want REAL streetwear - let me know and I'll lay down
some real knowledge upon this thread.

One more thing.

Don't trust eBay, ha.

 

thats fashion tho... u wanna wear what everyone else is wearing then jump on the train homie..... or if not look for something that new and hot.... am i right???
