The latest shoe from Bape is the new Bape Tracksta. This running shoe features a simple design that is similar to some of Nike’s running sneakers.
Including in this release are five colorways, the loudest of which is an orange/white/black version. The rest of the shoes are pretty tame, featuring mostly white, blues and other neutrals.
The Bape Tracksta is available right now at Bape Stores worldwide, priced at 11,340 yen. Via Hypebeast.

Recently we talked about the overpriced Bapesta sandals, now A Bathing Ape has created some overpriced socks.
Well, not exactly just socks - aqua socks, which means they are like a short shock with a rubber sole attached. I guess they are good for water sports, but I’m not sure that I’d pay $70 for them.
They come in four colors all with the Bapesta logo. You can get them in M, L & XL in upcoming weeks at Bape flagship stores for 7,140 yen. I’m not a big fan of these, but I’m sure somebody will like them. Via Nick Kicks.

Do you want a lively shoe that will certainly garner attention? Check out these shoes from A Bathing Ape.
The Dot Bapesta features multicolored dots all over a black or white base and a neon green sole. These shoes will remind you of confetti.
The white shoe features a hot pink inner lining and a blue outer sole for even more color, while the black version features black inside and on the outsole.
Personally, I don’t mind the black Bapesta but the white version reminds me of clown shoes. Get these at Bape retailers worldwide right now. Via Hypebeast.

Bape’s Summer 2008 line features a variety of shoes in great colors. So far, here are two of the models - the Bape Roadsta and a Bapesta Sandal.
The Roadsta is coming out in several colors, including brights and neutrals. My favorite is the purple version pictured above. It’s nice blend of the various shades of purple.
The Bapesta Sandals are a slip-on shoe in blue, red and yellow that may have some appeal but I’m not particularly fond of it. Check for all these shoes at your local A Bathing Ape retailer in upcoming weeks. Via Sneaker Files

The ever-popular A Bathing Ape Bapesta is coming out in a new Baby Milo model. These shoes feature patent leather and interesting patterns to create a unique looking shoe. The Baby Milo Bapesta will be available in three different colorways - Green, Blue and Pink, all great shades for spring.
This shoe and coordinating apparel will be released on Saturday at the A Bathing Ape store in Hong Kong. The green version looks more fitting for St. Patrick’s Day, but I think it’s the best looking of the bunch. Combining green with brown and other earth tones, this shoe will definitely get some attention from Bapesta lovers. Via Hypebeast

A Bathing Ape released four new stripe bapesta colorways that are sure to be a head with Bape-heads around the world. While each colorway is extremely unique, each is obviously A Bathing Ape shoe that will no doubt stand out from the crowd.
The most laidback colorway is the silver and gold version. With silver being it’s main color, it uses gold just to added some sparkle to the shoe. The gold and silver colorway is similar but it relies much more heavily on the gold.
The black and silver colorway is extremely flashy looking. If you rock these kicks, it’ll look like you have polka dots fighting with zebras on your feet. However, if you really want to make a statement, the black and gold stripe bapestas are sure to cause some stares. My favorite is the silver/gold version because it’s subtle. But it all depends on how much flair you dare to wear on your feet. Available now at Cliffedge. Via HypeBeast.

A new sneaker style is being released from A Bathing Ape as part of their Spring/Summer 2008 collection. The Bapesta 88 is a classic Hi-Top that features old school styling rather than a mod look.
This sneaker is being released in white, black, brown, navy and red colorways. The shoes are simple, yet different than most new styles you see on the market right now. They feature a stitched leather upper with a safari-like print used in the trim and toe.
The Bape shooting star logo covers the back of the heel, plus a small version of the logo is on the toe. I prefer the all white version or the black/white colorway pictured above. However, they are all similar - so it will just depend on your personal color preference.
These are available at Bape retailers now. You can get them at Cliff Edge for about $320.

Back in the day, A Bathing Ape started the whole limited edition sneaker craze. They also were some of the first to use wild colors and material in their kicks.
Now they have released the Bapesta Mid in three classic, simple colorways - beige, black and red/brown. These sneakers feature premium leather and the colorways are what you would normally see in boots. They even have boot laces.
You can get these shoes from Japanese store, Cliff Edge. The red/brown pair are 23,800 yen (~ $208 USD), while the other two colorways are 24,990 yen (~ $219 USD).
All three colors also come in a low version for 22890 yen (~ $201 USD).
I am particularly fond of the beige Mids, but all three colors are sweet. These shoes are a great option for winter.

 Instead of bright colors in patent and prints, this time A Bathing Ape (Bape) has decided to release some straight up leather shoes in solid muted colors.
These kicks would make a great option for a casual shoe, that can also be worn for a little more dressy occasion. The three colors are fairly neutral and should work with most any wardrobe.
I personally like these much better than the wild patent leather colorways of most Bape shoes, but I don’t know if these will be big sellers. Look for them to be released within the next month or so.

While some of you hate the “All Over Print” shoes, there are those of you who love them; so I have some good news for you. Bapes has recently come out with a new collection of Roadstas that have Polka Dot and All Over Print on them, and they are selling for anywhere between $180 - $190.
For those of you who are loyal supporters of the Bathing Apes hoodies that have similar patterns on them, you can now have sneakers that perfectly match the Bape hoodie.
