Japanese streetwear label A Bathing Ape drops its latest summer offering -- a pack of Ape Head Polo shirts. To combat the warmer summer weather, the label introduces a polo shirt in black and white colorways, which are adorned with Swarovski crystals on the chests. The garments are decked out with a series of crystals that make out the label's signature Ape Head logo in a variety of jewels.
The Swarovski jewel hues vary from pink, yellow, and blue in three different sizes, on top of the monochromatic canvas choices. There are also white button closures on both the colorway options. The BAPE x Swarovski Ape Head Polo shirts are now available for purchase online for the price of $259 USD.
