The eagerly anticipated second installment of the BAPE® Asia-inspired series, “A RISING BAPE®,” is set to make its debut. Following the theme of “dawn” in the first release, the second round draws inspiration from the 2024 Zodiac Dragon, introducing a range of essential pieces infused with dragon motifs. The T-shirts feature two styles: one showcasing a dragon with a BAPE® camo pattern resembling scales printed on the front, and the other with “APE FACE” printed on the left side of the chest and a dragon cloud pattern printed on the back. The round-neck sweatshirt is available in black and beige, both meticulously embroidered with a dragon cloud pattern on the front. Both the satin kung fu jacket and the hooded sweatshirt have “APE FACE” embroidered on the left side of the chest, a camo BAPE® dragon pattern embroidered on the back, and the hood of the hooded sweatshirt also features an embroidered “APE FACE” on the left side of the chest along with Asian-style beads.
For the bottoms, the word “BAPE®” is randomly embroidered on the left thigh of the overalls, and the BAPE® camo dragon in the same color as the pants is embroidered on the left calf. The series is said to be available for purchase on the official BAPE® website and authorized stores starting January 1, 2024 (Monday). For those interested, stay tuned for the release.
