Bape Leather Down Jacket

One of the holy grail that I have recently crossed off in my list. 

This is the Bape (A Bathing Ape) Jacket that Kimura Takuya wore in the J-Drama "HERO". 

I believe the drama was first released in 2001 and I watched it around 2003. This jacket has been on my list of grails ever since. 

I was finally able to acquire this jacket from Japan from the holidays. While this is not exactly the same jacket that was in the drama, it is pretty much the closest thing you can probably get from these days. Unless you are willing to purchase used. 

This was brand new from Japan.

Many websites have a lot different measurements for this jacket. So I decided to do a measurement during this video. 

Apologies for the bad lighting and low sound. I don't usually do videos but I found compelled to do one for this jacket.
