I remember rumors of a BAPE hotel and even BAPE airline…
There’s a Chrome Hearts (LA-based lifestyle and jewellery label) collaboration coming. I’ll probably opening more stores in Asia next year, and I’m doing a suit line that I’ve been working on for the past year that will be available at United Arrows store in Japan called Mr. A Bathing Ape.
I cant wait…
Dope collabo…
In the world of custom G-Shocks, Pharrell and the crew has pretty much outdone and outshone anybody with his outlandish customs. Add another one to the collection with this new gold joint.

Love it..I’m a G-Shock addict!
