Streetwear imprint BAPE recently launched a line of shark hoodies and to follow, the label dropped a new luxurious option of the Shark Hoodie Jacket. The most elevating detail lies in the construction -- with the iteration complete with luxe leather materials making up the entire piece.
The all-black tonal jacket stays true to the original design with the signature Shark Face emblem adorning the famed hood in monochromatic hues to match the dark tonal theme. There is also lettering that reads "WGM" on the right of the hood and an "a" done in a tiger design on the opposing side. On the bottom, there is the APE head motif to round out the branding accents.
