We Wont Stop!


Well there has been yet another Bathing Ape store opening, this time it's in LA. It would appear that Nigo has adopted Sean Combs 1999 modo for his Bad Boy record label; "We Wont Stop". This store is fresh and in my opinion way overdue for LA, they needed a Bape store around the same time that New York did. There was an all star guess list of course including N.E.R.D and Takashi Murakami. However there was one person in attendance that surprised me; Mike Tyson. Who knew he was still alive? One of the greatest boxers ever to fight was in attendance at the LA Bathing Ape store opening. Who knew that he even knew what Bape was?

I really like the design of the store and I think it will be a success simply because its a Bathing Ape store. Who doesn't like Bathing Ape? Let's just hope that the Aging Fakes in LA dont overpower the new store and that the citizens of LA do the right thing and purchase the authentic merchandise. 
Enjoy
