What is the difference between BAPE and AAPE?
BAPE is the premium main line founded in 1993. AAPE is a more accessible sub-brand featuring distinct logos (like the "Moon Face") and lower price points aimed at a younger, casual audience.
Does A BATHING APE fit true to size?
BAPE apparel often runs small compared to Western brands; we generally recommend sizing up one full size. For Bape Sta sneakers, most users find they fit true to size (TTS) or slightly large, similar to an Air Force 1.
