      It’s all just costume to me.

      Agree, the owner Hiro does seem to get things designed for his personal wares, as crazy as it is..

        I’m not against it (that would be insane), it’s just not my thing. A bit too “look at me” for my taste.

          ^Agreeing with you. Noting that Hiro seems to not see it as a costume or flashy, and is an extension of him..

                He looks like the dude that owns the turn of the century factory where all the Mr. Freedom wearing guys work.

                  It’s like couture fashion, I get that people appreciate the design and artistry but it isn’t really clothing in any practical sense.

                  There’s a gap in the market for a Primark or Old Navy style retailer specialising in couture, or period accurate, clothing but really cheaply made, “Dress like a tit for less” or something along those lines  😃

                            Who ? Isn't he the guy who wrote Summer of 69 ? 😉

                                        It’s an odd company, but one I really like.

                                        Japan’s most iconic streetwear’s designer takes his try at workwear.

                                        To me, it’s the opposite of Evisu, which was workwear and added steetwear elements to his garments and lines (oftentimes doing so badly.)

                                        Nigo, has instead taken his streetwear history and giving it an old world vibe. Classic cuts, vintage garments, but with a bit of streetwear grit. I think the humor is making fun of the Japanese companies that “try” to be rockabilly like Samurai, so things are quite over the top - like the burger jacket.

                                        ANNNNDDD since I stuck up for the brand, it’s proves you had a good unpop op haha

                                          Nigo is batshit crazy, he’s an obsessive nerd and that’s what I love about him. Being honest 90% of what he’s ever made is awful at both Bape  and Human Made, but the other 10% is just great clothing made from great materials with a particular Nigo twist.

                                          If I had the money I would certainly go back and collect much of the early Bape stuff (circa 1995-98). Same with Wtaps and to a lesser degree Neighborhood.

                                            Yep. Human Made gets a pass for me. And I used to be a Bape fanboy circa '99-00. Donated all my shit to the thriftstore a few yrs back. I guess i'm old. I now reflect on those days and ask myself wtf was I thinking?
