A Bathing Ape, better known as BAPE, recently introduced a new silhouette: the Flip STA. The sneaker is inspired by the chunky skate shoes of the 2000s and serves as a bolder version of the previously released Road STA. The new model drops in two colorways: 'Brown' and 'Ivory.'
While most people likely recognize BAPE for its iconic BAPE STA and Sk8 STA silhouettes, the brand constantly strives to innovate its own work. The BAPE Flip STA is a great example of this. The sneaker builds on the success of the Road STA, adding enlarged details to enhance its design.
The BAPE Flip STA is the perfect reimagination of a skate shoe in a fresh new design. The sneaker features a padded suede upper for ultimate comfort and is available in two colorways: 'Brown' and 'Ivory.' The 'Brown' edition stands out with bold suede elements on the tongue and toe box, while leather STA logos contrast beautifully against the upper.
The 'Ivory' colorway is dressed in an all-over off-white shade and utilizes the same materials as the 'Brown' version. Wavy overlays add a dynamic touch to the sneaker, while the thick tongue reinforces its skate DNA.
The Flip STA will be available at selected retailers on February 15, 2025. Check out the official campaign images below.
