A BATHING APE Wraps the BAPE STA In “Snakeskin”
A premium take on the classics.
2022 is a busy year for A BATHING APE as they are occupied with various projects under their sub-labels through collaborations of many fields. Being a big name in the streetwear scene, it is known to many that they are one of the OGs when it comes to hype sneakers, especially with the BAPE STA.
With a recent release of minimalistic colorways, A BATHING APE has decided to take a different approach to the classic silhouette with an all new rendition of the “Snakeskin” pattern. Introduced in two colorways, the BAPE STA models are given a premium touch to the upper with snakeskin-like leather panels.
While that may sound a bit too much for some, the shades of brown and grey used on the respective models tones down the overall texture outlook of the material, making it a pair that is still accessible and easy to style for many.
Set to release online via BAPE.COM on 4th November, the BAPE STA “Snakeskin” collection will also be made available via BAPE STORE® the following day on 5th November.
