Nigo and co. have decided to open up the [pop-up shop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuittons-soho-popup) A Bathing Ape Pirate Store London for business once again.

This whole concept first started in Tokyo and New York and finally made its way through Europe just this January. Now the A Bathing Ape Pirate Store London is going for a second round after finding much success in England. Once again, [limited edition t-shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-and-bandai) will be released exclusively every other day that the shop is open. Of course, there will also be other special Bape items that are hard to find that will be available at discounted prices.

The A Bathing Ape Pirate Store London will be open from July 2nd to July 10th. I suggest you get there fast if you're in England because this will draw huge line-ups.
