Quick verdict

A 100% cotton hooded zip hoodie, 250–300 gsm, offered in sizes M–XXXL across a long list of camo and character colorways. Bape fit reports conflict — some buyers find the cut slim, others loose — so confirming measurements with the seller is the sensible step. No buyer claims describe this exact listing.

Fit notes

Conflicting. One reviewer found his usual medium "very very slim" at roughly 155 lb; a Chinese-language thread says Bape runs small versus other brands yet cuts hoodies loose; a published chart places M at 165–175 cm and 96–104 cm chest. A Trustpilot buyer reported try-on samples not matching sold sizes, so verify measurements.

Buy if

You want a cotton zip hoodie in one specific camo or character colorway and will ask the seller for flat chest and length measurements first. The listing's own 1–3 cm tolerance and the conflicting Bape fit reports make that check the deciding step.

Skip if

You need a guaranteed slim or guaranteed oversized cut without measuring, or you want fleece-lined warmth in every colorway. Most options are unlined cotton; the brushed and padded variants are the exceptions.

Buying FAQ

Common questions

What is the hoodie made of?⌄

The listing specifies 100% cotton at 250–300 gsm, described as regular thickness and not fleece-lined. Colorways marked brushed are the brushed variants, and the 888 options are listed as two-sided padded (padded jacket) pieces.

How does this hoodie fit?⌄

The listing calls the cut loose, but Bape fit reports disagree: one reviewer found his usual medium very slim, another account says the brand runs small yet cuts hoodies loose. Ask the seller for flat chest and length measurements in your chosen size.

Should I size up?⌄

There is no single answer from the available reports. A reviewer around 155 lb recommended sizing up from his usual medium, while a Chinese-language account found L sufficient near 185 cm. Base the call on measured numbers, not the size label.

Is there anything to check on arrival?⌄

One Bape buyer reported a faint chemical smell on a new top out of the bag, so airing or washing before wearing is a reasonable precaution. A Trustpilot reviewer also advised verifying measurements rather than trusting try-on samples.

How much choice is there in colorway?⌄

The listing carries a long run of options, from camo and character prints to glow-in-the-dark tiger styles and the padded two-sided 888 variants. Availability varies by colorway, so confirm your pick and its variant type before ordering.

Evidence

sizing · con · 58% confidence

Bape hoodies can run slim even in a buyer's usual size — a reviewer who normally wears medium found the medium hoodie 'very very slim' on a ~155 lb frame and recommended sizing up for a relaxed fit.

Source

sizing · tip · 45% confidence

Chinese-language Bape buyers report the brand's sizing runs small relative to other brands, yet Bape hoodies are cut loose, so a buyer around 185 cm found an L sufficient.

Source

sizing · con · 48% confidence

A Bape customer complained on Trustpilot about 'Misleading Sizing', saying the in-store sample try-on garment did not correspond in size to the shirt actually sold, so buyers should verify measurements rather than trust try-on pieces.

Source

sizing · tip · 40% confidence

Published Bape size charts place size M around 165-175 cm height and 96-104 cm chest for a standard fit, and Bape hoodies are described as loose-fitting, so shorter buyers often choose a smaller size for the oversized look.

smell · con · 38% confidence

A Bape buyer reported that a newly purchased Bape top gave off a faint off/chemical smell out of the bag, suggesting airing or washing before wearing.
