Gain some nerd street cred by wearing these Bape Baby Milo Twitter T-Shirts, which are both adorable and fun for social media-addicted tweeps.
A Bathing Ape will release its new social media-themed tees on Saturday, March 19 at the London Bape Store and on the online site. Tweeps can choose from two Twitter-inspired graphics, one of which includes the infamous "fail whale" logo. They're both available in black or white, but with such a small collection, I'd get all four editions. The line itself is known for its one-of-a-kind pieces that appeal to hip hop artists like Pharrell and Kanye West, which makes me think that these tees will sell out faster than you can tweet.
