Quality Control Report: A BATHING APE Black Hoodie with Unique Graphic Prints
This detailed inspection covers a black BAPE hoodie featuring unique graphic prints. The assessment focuses on construction, materials, print execution, and overall authenticity indicators.
Materials and Construction
The hoodie uses a heavyweight cotton blend typical of BAPE products, with proper thickness and texture. The interior fleece lining shows consistent density without thin spots or pilling. All seams are double-stitched with matching black thread, showing no loose threads or skipped stitches. The ribbed cuffs and hem maintain elasticity without excessive stretching.
Graphic Print Assessment
The unique graphic prints demonstrate sharp edges with no bleeding or fading. Colors appear vibrant against the black background with proper saturation. Screen printing shows consistent thickness without cracking upon gentle stretching. Alignment of prints matches authentic positioning, particularly the signature ape head motifs.
Hardware and Details

Sizing and Fit
Measurements correspond to BAPE's standard sizing chart. The hoodie maintains symmetrical construction with even shoulder seams and balanced sleeve lengths. The hood provides adequate depth without excessive bulk.
Overall Assessment
This hoodie meets BAPE quality standards with proper materials, construction, and graphic execution. Minor variations in print placement may occur but fall within acceptable tolerances. Recommend GL (Green Light) for purchase.
