I was just gonna post something similar. I know there's BAPE stuff on E-bay, majority is fake stuff though, you'll know it's real based on the price. There are a few sites you can buy from, I think I got an address before from someone on this site maybe. As for North American sources, I doubt it ... speaking of clothing, is there any UNKLE or Futura merchandise to but anywhere online? What about Mo'Wax t-shirts? Any good sources out there?

Believe BAPE have just opened up a NYC store recently - that would be your best bet. Only 100% trustworthy place to buy from on web is HK Concept Shop - everthings genuine, but does need shipping from HK. Assume NYC store does mail-order if you ring them.

Well, I live in SoHo, NYC. There was supposed to be a Bape store or cafe somewhere around here but I never noticed one. There's this one stakeboarding/urban wares shop on Canal & West Broadway that has some UNKLE stuff (Posters, Stickers, Figures and things) but no bape ware. Anyone know an address for this place?

If it's like most of the stores it won't even mention bape anywhere outside - not big on advertising. Got a card with all the store addresses last time I bought a jacket, but that was a month or 2 ago. I'll dig it out and see if it's got the NYC store on it.

According to: www.nydailynews.com/city_life/story/228832p-196548c.htmlA BATHING APE 61 Greene St. Cargo magazine style director Bruce Pask is thrilled that this Japanese brand is coming to a storefront in SoHo. "There is only one Bathing Ape store outside of Japan, and it's in Hong Kong," says Pask. "There is a huge mystique around their merchandise - the designer, Nigo, will literally limit each customer's purchase to one item; you have stand in line to get into the store." Sound mysterious and weird? It is. But the cult following will line up for the limited-edition goods he sells, if only for the street cred of actually getting their hands on it. Opens this fall. Though some other sites say by spring. At least we know the address.

You should check out ebay if you want any bape stuff, there's two kinds of the camo jackets, one is the black reversible and the other is the 2004 release, which is the one Ian Brown is wearing in his latest vid. I almost bought one on ebay for £120 new!

In fact just had a look and I found four of the 2004 camo jackets from £80 to £100, they all say they are genuine but there's obviously no way to check that. I'm pretty tempted. One of the sellers has 9 of them brand new and is offering full refund if your not satisfied they are real. Maybe worth a look.
