Hey i'm just wondering how old most people on here are and what jobs they work? I think its interesting to see how much bape these people ahve and they act liek they started buyign bape 1 week ago and are only 14. i would liek honest answer's. I'm 16 and i work so its hard for me to get bape and bbc but i love their design's and i like dit wya back before it was all teh rage but couldn't afford so yea if you would say how you can afford your bape would be cool.
 
Stay in school. Go to college. Get a job. Then you can buy bape. :lol:

Nonetheless, most people rockin bape are grown-ups, so you have no reason to feel left out. :p :wink:
 
I'm 17 and most of my bape stuff ( i dont have too much three pairs of shoes , one sweat shirt, 2 hoods, 2 shirts) i saved up my self with babysitting money but for xmas this year my dad actually paid for one of the shoes and a shirt

i know yall gonna hate on me for this but personally, lil youngins that are 14 should be tryin to cop bape first off, i know its tight and i know you wanna look dope but all things will come to you when the time is right. the point is $200 shoes and $400 hoodies isnt logical for lil 14 years olds to buy when they dont got the funds to support it and better yet there body is still growing. my advice would be to admire bape maybe get one or two items that are special to you and then lay off and wait till your older and grown and can afford to drop big prices on clothing
(i know it sucks i was 14 too once trying to stay fresh but honestly its the best advice i can give you)

Honestly, I know what you mean, but I have been following bape since I was 12. I know most stuff about the brand and am really into it. I couldn't afford it then and pretty much just dreamed I had it(and this is before it was mainstream), but now I work so that I can afford it. I don't own a hoody because I can't afford to spend $300+ on one item.
 
I wouldn't worry too much about other people's situation, because on the surface of it they could be wearing a reseller's dream, but on the inside they could be from the poorest family ever. Just cuz you have a hoodie and the internet doesn't make you rich.

full time career - u.s. air force... i make around 1500 every payday... and my wife works full time at a bank.... BUT i dont spend all of my money on clothes... grown folks have bills, food, houses, and car notes to pay for.... so my extra loot goes to jordans or bape, depending on my mood...

16...well 17 this friday cz its my bday. im jobless but i still admire all the bape stuff thats out there, whether cz its flashy and stylish or the exclusivity of it(well it was right?)i got a pair of bapes and thats it. im tryin to save up for hoodies, but as someone sed, 300 for one item is pretty steep. ill get hoodies but its gotta be a deal or nothin.

i just turned 17 on the 25th i went to hot import nights for my birthday it was cool. anyways i just save up all my allowance money to buy clothes. sometimes i buy jeans and shirts at like ross/marshalls any place like that. the only bape item i have are the chompers and man i love them! it was a birthday present from my girlfriend. i'm not rich yet... but i'm looking to get a kaws hoody soon or some dunks.

17. ive been working since 13, so that helps pay for shit being that i dont have to worry about food/rent... selling my old shoes is good money too. i bought sbs back in the day for retail, wore em for a few years, now i sell em and get 3x what i paid for em. easy money
