Three more colorways in a new material are added to A Bathing Ape’s Bapesta lineup. Shunning away from their signature patent leather lineup, the newly-released Bapestas feature an ostrich leather detailing that added texture and dimension to the collection. The lineup appears solid in a classic low-top silhouette that seems to assure comfort when wearing them.  The colorways include three options in Magenta/Blue/White (shown above), White and Tan/Black/White.  All three pairs also feature white laces that make a nice contrast to the Magenta and Tan colorways.

Retailing at $200, these kicks are now available at all Bape stores nationwide.

A Bathing Ape is releasing 3 new colorways of their Five Sta Sneakers for Fall 2009. The new color mixes and Bape’s shift to earthtone colors are somewhat going to the direction of New Balance’s design. These new runners feature suede and leather combos in 3 subtle color tones in brown, white and black. No word on the pricing yet. Check availability at Bape’s retail stores near your area.

Kanyesta is probably one of the most known BAPESTAS ever. In the run-up for the Teriyaki Boyz single “I still love H.E.R.” feat. Kanye West, the Star producer/rapper got together with NIGO to create this amazing piece of sneaker history. One interesting detail to note in this shoe is the “College Dropout Bear” on the left side of the shoe. Available at Schuh-You.

Bathing Ape in collaboration of Columbia pictures created a line of bapestas and clothes to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the 80s hit comedy “Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters”.

Both feature the Ghostbusters famous logo on the heel of the sneaker as well as on the upper back ankle support. Also included as part of the collection are a couple of shirts as well as a coffee mug. Now available at all Bape stores & on ebay.

The word for this pair is…lovely! We cannot think of any other word to characterize this special pair from Bape. Look at the bright patent leather of the upper, covered with a sparkly coat, the translucent speckled sole, and the word to be added to the “lovely” above is brilliant this time.

The brand Bape is associated with flashiness and bravado, and this design surely lives up to that reputation and the Bape name. There’s of course every reason in the world to condemn excess in favor of elegance, but when in the right hands, even such a difficult to handle concept can be concluded in a perfectly harmonious manner. This is what Bape shows us in this design.

Look at the pair again, and sing your favorite song praising beauty and joy. Once you’re done, you can head to the Bape Chapter Store to cope a pair of these. via HB
