A Bathing Ape is feeling a little nostalgic, so the famed Japanese brand is bringing back old favorites by launching the Bape Classics Second Edition Collection.
The Bape Classics Second Edition Collection has the urban brand going back to its roots by re-releasing the items that have been a favorite among fans of the brand. The series showcases a variety of varsity jackets, camo-themed outerwear, tees and hoodies. Accessories include tote bags and a pair of sneakers with a crisp all white colorway. Design-wise, the look is definitely a lot more toned down compared to the usual flashy themes that Bape has released since then. Each piece from the collection will have two different colors available for purchase.
There's no doubt that Bape's new collection will have fans feeling nostalgia when they see these re-releases.
