A Bathing APE has been sold to Chinese fashion company I.T. Limited

A Bathing Ape has been sold!

If you have not yet heard, BAPE has been sold to a I.T. Limited. I have never heard of the company but it is based out of Hong Kong, China and is apparently a pretty big fashion company.

I was pretty surprised by this news. From what I have been reading though, it seems that BAPE was not doing too well financially. It is sad to hear the company was sold, but I guess it is better then it just going out of business completely. The saddest part about this news is that the company was sold for just $2.8 million. That seems like a pretty low price for the company given how many locations it currently has and the reputation the brand has.

There has also been some rumours lately that the BAPE store in New York City might end up closing. I think that would be a dumb move on the new owners part since NYC is a pretty fashionable place and people have a lot of money. I hope this rumour isn’t true, but the L.A. store has been closed for awhile now so who knows what is left for BAPE in North America.

Last year, A Bathing Ape released the different colour camo iPhone skins which were a big success. Now, the latest release is a Baby Milo iPhone skin for the iPhone 4G. It looks good, but I wish they would make some for other types of phones or at least just make one that you can cut out to fit your specific phone.

A Bathing Ape x Porter release new bag line up.

0

A Bathing Ape and Porter are set to release a new line up of bags, wallets, carrying cases and more on April 20th, 2011. The designs feature the BAPE camo on the outside of the bags and the interior is bright orange. The prices in the images are in Japanese yen. I really like the BAPE laptop bag, but I don’t really like the orange interiors. It would have been better if it was the grey urban camo on the inside and the green jungle camo on the outside.
