Official Bape Thread

[shimmy]

wonder if Pondon will stock the hoodies...not gonna wait around/refresh but will hopefully remember to check later

 

[mr 100]

Is it just me or did bape us not put anything up yet?

It went up around 12:05 PM EST.

Got my Bearbricks and kept it moving.

 

[slowwonee89]

Wish I refreshed their site sooner. Was only going for 400% bearbricks on this release but no luck

 

[shimmy]

pondon had the 400% up for almost 10 mins, just FYI

[kami]

Think the 100% I can get close to retail? Don't think anyone wants them right haha.

 

[drewsone]

Still waiting on my shipping email from Pondon lol

New to Bape, was able to get a Bape MMJ hoodie but then found out about the slimmer sizing, what would be the best option to get a bigger size? Trade? Sell and buy my size? Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you.

Thanks for your input, eBay is not an option, would seem the easiest route but I can't think why people would sell these on eBay with all the scamming now, personally I don't list anything over $100 anymore. Yeah they going for a lot but retail was quite steep too.

What size was it?

 

[beenbamboozled]

What size was it?

Medium, took it out the bag and measured it, with those measurements it should fit but would like a more baggy fit, usually wear a medium or large depending on brand, though I do like to stick to medium because 100% cotton garments stretch and sag over time, large ending up too baggy.

Yea thats kinda my issue with my bape hoodies. Large are perfect in length but kinda baggy otherwise, but my mediums are too short length especially when they shrink. I have one hoodie that i love that cant even really wear anywhere because it's too small

 

[cheeman]

How do roadstas fit again?

Been thinking about buying a pair for old times sake

If you're on fb there are street wear groups you can try to swap in. Or go on eBay and msg a seller for a lower price via invoice then sell yours for whatever price you pay.

I really want the mastermind hoodie but can't bring myself to drop $900 on it

 

[alp]

Retail was 6 plus tax and shipping so all and all 9 isn't really horrible

With shipping and tax it was roughly $610.

Even retail was rough, though I recently went on a hoodie splurge for myself, though I offset the cost by getting rid of several sneakers. When I had seen the collaboration announced I told myself I had to get the camo hoodie but knew my chances at retail were slim, but I surprisingly caught a restock online through undefeated a few days ago, size wasn't adding to cart, then it did and I checked out, thought I would be cancelled but all was good. I usually try to invest in a few pieces from time to time.

Thank you for the info, on FB in LA I have yet to see many post these up for trade or sale, probably need to look harder. I might try the eBay route though but again like I stated so many scammers now, like the saying goes 'one bad apple spoils the bunch'. Seen a listing that looked promising but then checked the sellers' recent completed transactions and they had sold a fake pair of Yeezy Moonrocks.

If you're talking about the zip up it was 6 plus all that

What time was that undefeated restock?

And yeah I don't think many people even have the hoodie. eBay might be the best route just be thorough.

But good thing is if you do happen to get a fake you have an authentic on your side for comparison. eBay and PayPal usually favor the buyer too

 

[JSWAM]

Pondon has one for $900 though.. i might pull the trigger next week. Might splurge a little.

 

[beenbamboozled]

Yeah the zip retailed $600, but I should have mentioned it was the pullover camo hoodie which retailed $550, personally didn't like the zip up because of the velvet material which can get damaged easier.

eBay seems to have many listed, I don't know if it was a full restock but some items on their page weren't greyed out and I couldn't believe they had my size, even though now I found out they run small. At first it didn't add but then to my surprise after many taps it did, maybe items that were cancelled for one reason or another.

Don't know exact time items became available but this was the time I checked out.

 

[alp]

Oh ok, I like the zip one better personally

 

[beenbamboozled]

It looks great for sure and I would choose it above the pullover if the black sections were regular fleece versus velvet.

Nice but who knows if they will still be around, last night there was M, L and XL available, today XL is gone and it was priced at about $1K too.

 

[beenbamboozled]

Well maybe I should use this hoodie as a reason for self improvement and lose an additional 5 lbs, with that it would fit perfect. hahaha. Thank you all for your input, much appreciated.
