# Clown Makeup Kicks The Brightly Hued BAPE Creep Sta Are Ready to Strut By Robyn Currie | Published 2010-01-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-creep-sta References: [freshnessmag](http://www.freshnessmag.com/2010/01/09/bape-x-ambush-creep-sta/) & [bape](http://www.bape.com) I am really big fan of [rap stars collaborating with shoe manufacturers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concrete-boys-air-force-1), because the result is always something awesome. And the [BAPE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-sta) Creep Sta is no exception. Created with rapper m-flo, these kicks feature a variety of [bright colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clogposite-2), and they are sure to catch the eye of anyone who passes by. They are also a tongue in cheek nod to the Creep style shoes favored by goths and punks. Fashion and sarcasm, together at last with the BAPE Creep Sta. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Rap Star Collaborations:** Opportunity for shoe manufacturers to collaborate with rap stars to create unique and eye-catching designs. - **Brightly Colored Footwear:** Growing trend of incorporating vibrant colors into shoe designs. - **Fashion with Sarcasm:** Emerging trend of incorporating witty and ironic elements into fashion designs. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Footwear Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for footwear manufacturers to create collaborations that appeal to a wider consumer base. - **Fashion Design:** Opportunity for fashion designers to experiment with bold and vibrant color palettes in their creations. - **Streetwear:** Growing market for streetwear brands to incorporate elements of sarcasm and irony into their designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Refined Minimalist Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-sta.md) - [Camo-Patterned Collaborative Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-and-adidas.md) - [Camo-Print Colorful Skate Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-and-vans.md) - [Rapper-Collaborative Colorful Sneakrs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1906r-sneaker-7.md) - [Maximalist Pop Art Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keiichi-tanaami.md) - [Chunky Collaborative Skate Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lwst-sneaker.md) - [Rapper-Collaborative Bright Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/action-bronson-and-new-balance.md) - [Patterned Collaborative Slip-On Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-clog-2.md) - [Retro-Futuristic Rapper-Collab Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mostro-3d.md)
