The A Bathing Ape Bapesta FS-001 Low 'Black Snake' sneaker builds on a street-style legacy that began in the early aughts. The original Bapesta was released in 2002, pulling inspiration from popular hoops footwear in the West. This rendition traces the original design and adds snakeskin-inspired panels for a luxurious feel. The shoe's black underlays and outsole help ground the look.
