The A Bathing Ape Sk8 Sta #5 White Gray, a traditional icon in Japan, is inspired by the American skate scene and given depth with its shades of tonal color blocking.
This low-top skating sneaker features an upper of premium white leather with perforations dotting the toebox to enhance breathability and improve comfort with every step. Pebbled gray leather forms the toecap in midfoot overlay, as well as the signature side panel shooting star. Darker gray overlays in pebbled leather adorn the eyestays, collar, heel counter, and heel tab. A pale gray Bape branding tongue tag hits the white tongue, while white embroidered Bape branding graces the heel tab. A white foam midsole sports embossed Bape branding and rests atop a pale gray outsole with star pattern grooves for traction.
The stand-out aspect of this sneaker that we most enjoy is the TPU overlay in pale gray, which hits the lateral heel and features the number 93. The A Bathing Ape Sk8 Sta #5 White Gray was released on November 1, 2023, for a retail price of $309.
