The BAPE hoodies that were recently released by the Japanese streetwear brand have an unconventional look that's sure to catch some glances.
With a split-panel design, each is divided in half by the different colors of camouflage that mark it. The BAPE hoodies come in three colorways, one of which is red and pink, another that's blue and purple and a third that's slightly more subtle with a black and white colorway.
The streetwear brand's label is included on the sleeves of the BAPE hoodies minimally, while its shark motif is featured on the back of the hoods themselves. Paired with this is the image of a tiger, which brings even more color contrast to the vibrant apparel.
