earlier today, i went to soho with a friend just to get a glimpse of a bathing ape's newest shop as it FINALLY opened today. i think we waited in the line for like almost an hour before we got in and hovered around for a good half hour. as a result, i came out of the shop carrying 3 pairs of bapestas. of course, for a good reason, i plan to sell 'em on ebay as these bapestas can be only purchased at this new york location. while i won't disclose the price of these sneakers, you can call me crazy for buying these overpriced sneakers, but i'm crossing my fingers that many crazed bape fans from asia will buy 'em at such whopping $$$ soon this week. if that's the case, then i should be able to get a nice dose of profit for holiday shopping soon!

also, i did see nigo, the creator and president of a bathing ape at the shop... he's soo dayum SHORT... like 5'4 or so!
