BAPE College T-Shirt 'White'

After opening his first store, NOWHERE, with UNDERCOVER’s Jun Takahashi, Japanese designer Tomoaki “Nigo” Nagao launched <a href="/brand/bape">A Bathing Ape</a>, or BAPE, in 1993. Emerging from Tokyo’s Ura-Harajuku scene, the name of the brand was inspired by the 1968 film Planet of the Apes, and the Japanese idiom “a bathing ape in lukewarm water” as an irreverent nod to Japanese youth’s penchant for overconsumption.
BAPE has exerted an untold influence on global style since its founding. From<a href="/brand/comme-des-garcons"> Comme des Garçons</a> and Coca-Cola to Kanye West and A$AP Rocky, the brand’s list of collaborators is exhaustive. Spanning apparel, sneakers, accessories and more, common identifiers of the brand include the 1ST CAMO pattern, shark-face motif and Ape Head logo. Several sublines have stemmed from the BAPE lineage, including AAPE, BABY MILO, BAPE BLACK and MR. BATHING APE.

<h2>What sizes does BAPE come in?</h2>
 
BAPE products are available in men’s, women’s and kids’ sizes.
For men, clothing runs from size small (S) through extra extra large (XXL).
For women, clothing runs from size extra extra small (XXS) through large (L).&nbsp;
For kids, clothing runs from size 70 (6 months) through 160 (14-16 years).

<h2>Sneakers Size and Fit&nbsp;</h2>
 
<h3>BAPESTA</h3>
 
BAPE’s flagship sneaker is the <a href="/sneakers/silhouette/bapesta">Bapesta</a>. An interpretation of Nike’s Air Force 1, the sneaker is known for its patent leather construction, providing it with a gleaming complexion.
Unlike the Air Force 1, which runs big, Bapestas fits true to size. People with wider feet may want to go a half size up for extra room. When buying women’s, men should go a size and a half down.
 
<h3>Sk8 Sta</h3>
 
The BAPE <a href="/sneakers/silhouette/sk8-sta">Sk8 Sta</a> emerged during the Y2K era along with models such as the Roadsta. Where the Bapesta takes cues from the Nike Air Force 1, the Sk8 Sta is a reimagining of the Nike Dunk.
Like the Bapesta, the Sk8 Sta fits true to size. People with wide feet may opt to go a half size up. When buying women’s, men should go a size and a half down.

<h2>BAPE Hoodies Size and Fit</h2>
 
Hoodies are an essential component of BAPE’s expansive product catalog. Launched in 2004, today the shark-face hoodie is considered a streetwear icon.
All <a href="/apparel/brand/bape">BAPE hoodies</a>, including the shark-face style, generally run one size small. Therefore, most people should size up when selecting a BAPE hoodie. For example, if you wear a size medium in a Nike or adidas hoodie, it is advisable to buy a BAPE hoodie in size large.

Sweatpants are grouped under small, medium, large, extra large and extra extra large categories. A 35-37 inch waist should select size small; a 37-39 inch waist should select size medium; a 39-41 inch waist should select size large; a 41-43 inch waist should select size XL; and a 43-45 inch waist should select size XXL.

<h2>BAPE Shorts Size and Fit</h2>
 
Like the hoodies, <a href="/apparel/brand/bape">BAPE shorts</a> run one size small, particularly the basketball shorts which are shorter than average NBA shorts. Therefore, if you are a medium in Nike or adidas shorts, a large pair of BAPE shorts will generally provide a better fit.
