Where are the bape shops located ah? If i'm not wrong, got 2 at far east plaza and 1 at bugis right? the shopping center above the underground mrt station.

Singapore no official shops (aka BWS). Only got reseller, which is located at bugis, Bape@Play

200 Victoria Street, Bugis Junction 3rd Level #03-14

bapestas are worth, at very most, $200 sgd. quality is no better than a nike.

Hi TheMasquerade,

At most S$200??? Is this your opinion or a fact that u have seen one selling at this price?
I am really interested to get one pair but dont know where to look for it beside the one at Bugis Junction.

If i am not wrong, Bathing Ape shoes are like the LV's/Gucci's of sneakers. They are usually price higher than the average sneakers.

rudylili: Yeah, becos its BAPE. But the one you're looking at seems like an limited/special edition one.

Have you tried looking at Warped ?

weinyeong: Very nice and striking red laces there. Whats your size ?

Hi davi502,

From the online store for Warped, i don't see any BAPESTAs shoes displaying/selling.
However physcially, i has yet to pay them a visit since last month.
Whenever i go there, i always aimed for the Jordan's 1st, than slowly browse for other stuffs.
There wasn't any BAPESTAs' that catches my attention.
Perhaps last month i didn't know much about BAPESTAs'

hmm

i think you can try one shop in haji lane, but i get most of my info from japan, it's usually 16000 yen+ which is currently 240 sgd but kindly recall how much the yen has strengthened, it used to be 1.30 sgd to 100 yen...

sauce, bape.com

now if you want my opinion, don't buy bape. they are just too loud, their quality is miles below lanvin/lv and they honestly look no different from a nike. i love unique footwear that boast subtle yet appealing details that no other shoe would ever have; that is to say a distinctive style. also quality is very important, esp. material used.

bapestas are like for 12 year old kids who think many contrasting colours that induce seizures make for cool clothing

however im starting to like bapes newer winter/spring collection i saw in tokyo, they're more toned down...

Hi all,

I find this Bapesta, damn dope!!! ISETAN PATTERN!!! Pretty + Unique + Sweet Mandrain Orange on the sole!!!
Much better than it's original camouflage pattern design.

Hi TheMasquerade,

I must admit bapesta uses pretty loud colours...but perhaps this is it unique-ness.
For me, after viewing pages of bapesta websites and to flip back to ordinary sneakers website....wow, i can really feel the "yawning" effect of looking at those dull colours of some kicks.
haizzz....hope to get the Isetan pattern bapesta!!! What is the word which describe more than "loving it"?

Yeah I agree. But I dont kinda liek the Isetan pattern one.. haha.
I guess if those shop are resellers, the price is gonna be up a lil bit or even up abnormally.

Does this comes to conclusion that singapore is not a good place to get them UNLESS you seriously have like an extra 300 in your pocket and have already donated 1million to the charities and needed a treat for yourself. lol.:D

Anybody organizing a mass order for pickyourshoes.com? Would like to get some in the future.
