Cold World – BAPE One Off

Cold World commissioned these BAPE rip off shirts for a Montreal gig in 2006. Who knew kids would go bananas for them as much as they did. The demand was through the roof, and they were reprinted and sold online later. The ones sold online later did NOT have the tiny Lockin Out logos in […]
