The growth and development in the world of fashion has always been everlasting. Although it is sometimes difficult for different cultures to find a stepping stone into this world, the Asian culture has finally been able to grab a hold of some leverage. Established in Japan since the year 1993, A Bathing Ape has proven to be a bright beacon in spreading Japanese street fashion worldwide. Collaborating with Gitman Brothers, Ebbets Field, Champion and Geroge Cox, the new S/S 2013 collection yields to be more than promising. Featuring bold prints and a vivid array of color, the pieces seem to have a life of their own. Having a stem of hip-hop inspiration, the hats, sneakers, graphic tees, and jackets are packed with spunk, attitude, and that much appreciated Asian flare.
