Quick verdict

A multi-colorway cotton pullover hoodie listing in sizes S–XXL, cut loose, with lettering prints and side seam pockets. Reports on Bape hoodies generally describe stiff fabric and inconsistent sizing rather than a consensus, so treat fit as the thing to confirm first. Check the specific colorway's measurements with your agent before ordering.

Fit notes

Buyer reports conflict. One tip says Bape hoodies run true to size, with sizing up advised only between sizes; another buyer around 5'8" and 155 lbs found a size M too snug and preferred L. Others describe Bape sizing as inconsistent and running small. The listing gives S–XXL, a loose cut, and a 1–2cm tolerance — confirm measurements before ordering.

Buy if

You want a cotton pullover hoodie with a lettering print in a specific black, white, or grey colorway, and you are willing to confirm chest and length measurements with your shopping agent before committing.

Skip if

You want a guaranteed fit without checking measurements, or you expect a fleece-lined or heavyweight-lined hoodie — this listing is regular thickness with no lining.

Buying FAQ

Common questions

Do these hoodies run true to size?⌄

Reports are split: one tip says Bape generally runs true to size, while another buyer found a size M snug at 5'8" and 155 lbs and preferred L, and sizing is elsewhere described as inconsistent. Confirm chest and length measurements for the size you're considering.

Is the fabric stiff?⌄

Public commentary on Bape hoodies and jackets describes the materials as stiff, and one long-time buyer says the hand shifted toward a slicker, synthetic-like feel. This listing states cotton with a 350g–400g weight and no fleece lining.

Does it arrive with an odor?⌄

One buyer reported a faint lingering odor on a BAPE garment when taken out of the bag. That report is about a different piece, so treat it as a possibility to check on arrival rather than a known trait of this listing.

Is there a fleece lining?⌄

No. The listing states regular thickness with no lining and no fleece, and lists spring and autumn as the intended seasons.
