BAPE Overdye 2nd Ape Full Zip Hoodie Navy

The BAPE Overdye 2nd Ape Full Zip Hoodie Navy takes the brand's second generation Ape Head design and applies an overdye treatment that gives the Navy colorway a rich, slightly weathered depth not typically seen in standard dye jobs. Overdyeing has become a favorite technique among streetwear labels looking to add texture and uniqueness to otherwise familiar silhouettes, and BAPE's application here gives this full zip hoodie a distinct, almost vintage character straight out of the box. The 2nd Ape design adds another layer of brand history, referencing an earlier evolution of BAPE's core logo.

Longtime BAPE collectors appreciate overdyed pieces for the subtle variation they bring to familiar silhouettes, since no two garments dye exactly the same way. Pairing that technique with the 2nd Ape graphic gives this hoodie a deeper connection to BAPE's design archive. Fans who value texture and process driven detail will find this release particularly rewarding to track down.

The BAPE Overdye 2nd Ape Full Zip Hoodie Navy was released on March 19, 2022 with a retail price of $275.
