Neighborhood x Supreme Stadium Jacket


After almost one month of negotiation, selling some of my most prized items at dirt cheap prices, I've finally received this baby.

Every single graphic you see on this jacket is luxiriously stitched, the outer shell is composed of half Rayon and half cotton, giving it a nice sheen, smooth feel and durable, breathable texture. The inner is lined to keep you warm as well.

Two inner pockets with simple linings.

The detail is breath taking, even the white stripes on the sleeves are stitched, this color-way does the jacket better justice as opposed to the all black colorway.

However, though I usually can fit into a size M, this jacket is somehow slimmer than other Neighborhood stuff, so I have to give it up and look for a size L, which is pretty much no where to be found.

Anyhow, here are a few pictures being worn, since it's going on eBay soon, let's leave some memories...





If anyone happens to have this in a size L and would like to trade, let me know, I am willing to pay extra!

Peace.

BAPE x DC


Perhaps some of us will hate on BAPE for constantly recycling the ideas from other people, you still gotta give props to BAPE for doing it well. Here is the freshly released BAPE x DC Bapestas, featuring "original" mini Batman, Superman, The Flash, and Wonderwoman themes and figures. The shoes, like the BAPE x Marvel series, will be packaged like the toys, the label on the back heels will feature nicely stitched mini Superhero heads. Check out the pictures!!!!

BAPE BAPE BAPE


NIGO

Creator and current director of BAPE or known as its full name: A Bathing Ape

I believe most of you already know who he is, I just wanted to give him some props since I was going through all the pictures I saved from auctions and whatnot; so this post will elaborate on how he does his t shirts...

BAPE TEEs


It's truly amazing to see how Nigo can play around with this original into literally endless alterations; I mean I used to despise BAPE for the reason that all they seem to do is copy and paste; but then you gotta give this guy some props for doing it to the extreme; there are a lot of pictures so behold...the power of BAPE

Say Hello to this little shirt!



And the latest release: BAPE X DC COMICS

Well you can be rest assured that there are tons and tons more variation, it's still nice to see how much designs the guy came up.

The sole reason why he chose to produce so much variation though, is that he disliked seeing everyone wearing the same things, so Nigo created a method to produce the same product in extremely limited amount, but broaden the product line like there is no tomorrow; and thanks to this method, the tees are super stupid expensive!

More to come...
