Japanese streetwear giant A Bathing Ape released fresh versions of its poplar 'Tiger Camo' shirts, as well as a number of others that make use of its shark and ape motifs.
The most simplistic Tiger Camo shirts that are a part of the new series feature the unique print all over, and have BAPE's name overlaying it in simple sans serif lettering in stark white. On the side of one hip, a patch logo is featured as well.
The shirts that have the shark motif tend to feature it on the back in a single-toned outline that helps it to stand out on the otherwise busy shirts. The ones that boast the ape motif have a similar execution, however many of them feature the unique camouflage design inside the graphic rather than on the fabric.
