Thank you for viewing! This is a rare A BATHING APE sweatshirt, rarely seen even on Mercari. This piece has a strong presence, with the legendary "APE SHALL NEVER KILL APE" message, essential to the history of BAPE, printed largely on the front. ★Key Points!★ • Phantom Early Tag: The neck tag is the early "abathingape ape shall never kill ape" notation, different from the current one. This is a detail that will make any enthusiast drool, evoking the golden age of Ura-Harajuku, handled by NIGO. • Overwhelming Design: The core message of the brand is boldly placed. The iconic design, simple yet powerful, instantly recognizable as BAPE, has been loved across generations. • Golden Size L: A highly sought-after L size. The relaxed silhouette fits perfectly with current trends. • Collector's Item: Early BAPE items are increasing in value year by year. The number available on the market is extremely small, and it will undoubtedly become even more difficult to obtain in the future. It's an item with asset value, not only to wear but also to own as a collection. 【Product Details】 • Brand: A BATHING APE / A Bathing Ape • Item: Early Sweatshirt Trainer • Color: Beige系 (Vintage feel) • Size: L • Material: Cotton ＊Size Shoulder width: 59 cm Length: 66 cm Body width: 59 cm Please consider these as approximate measurements, as they are taken by a layman. 【Condition】 Although it is an old item, it has been carefully stored, so the print condition is good, and there are no noticeable damages.

This is a supreme item that I can confidently deliver to those who have been seriously looking for it and those who want to get their hands on a historical archive of BAPE.
