Product Description
The A Bathing Ape Bape SK8 Sta Black is a low-top sneaker featuring black leather overlays at the toe box and heel, accented by white leather underlays.
The multi-talented Nigo, a former stylist, editor, and Teriyaki Boyz member, founded the streetwear brand A Bathing Ape in Tokyo in 1993. The A Bathing Ape brand name refers to the Planet of the Apes film and also the Japanese custom of bathing. Alongside its esoteric references, the brand is known for signature design themes, such as the SK8 Sta’s camouflage print panels. At the Black A Bathing Ape Bape SK8 Sta, the midfoot features green camouflage print fabric underlays, accented by cream leather star cutouts. A white midsole and Black outsole coheres to the aesthetic, balanced by Bape branding on the tongue.
Our experts feel that the best feature of the SK8 Sta Black is its mélange of upper materials, which offer a unique variation on a classic sneaker silhouette. The A Bathing Ape Bape SK8 Sta Black was released on January 22, 2022, and retailed at $295.
