Wearing a STA without overdoing it
One loud piece at a time is the rule. STAs with plain denim and a plain tee is the look; STAs with a printed tracksuit is a lot. The black-on-black pair is the exception — it wears like any other low top.
BAPE STAs are R1,600 a pair, flat. The patent leather, the shooting star on the side, the shape that has been argued about since 2000 — it is the loudest shoe we stock and the one that finishes an outfit on its own. Every colourway on this rail is in hand.

STAs run narrow and slightly short. If you are between sizes or have wide feet, go up. We carry UK 4 to UK 10 and swap unworn pairs within 7 days.
Patent scuffs rather than stains. A damp cloth clears most marks straight away, and keeping them out of a crowded bag does more for them than any cleaner.
