/fa/ - Fashion

I mean if they had some original clothing then Id have no prob with it. Hood by air has original shit(even tho its not my style)

I think a majority of people who wear Supreme are box logo hypebeast fags

Supreme have some genuinely cool designs if you look into their catalog

I agree most people wearing it are fucccbois but they do have some nice pieces. The Daniel Johnston release last Thursday was cool

>>9737384

top kek, did your friends make fun of you when you show up in full supreme clothes??

>>9737449
lol I can tell you wear supreme. Offended by what I have to say?

The fukks started it, they had the demand for online releases and swagfag teenagers with their moms wallet waiting for release to buy a hoodie with a basic logo on it for $150.

Shame.

I hate supreme, feels like only black people and wiggers wear it.

>>9737449
lol @ butthurt bogo cuckbois who realize they wasted hundreds on being a walking advertisement

Didn't Supreme steal the damn design from some women and are now acting like they owned the design the entire time?

>>9737547
What design? A Hanes t-shirt with a bar logo stitched on?

They have a few cool pieces but overall a very shitty brand

The tees are pretty thick. I just try not to buy anything with a dumbass box logo since those are sold out anyways.

The only things I like from them are some of the graphic tees. No box logo.

>being so apathetic you don't do anything about it, or even want to do anything about it yourself

from Laos so sorry on english, supreme is for poor lamb toucher of american,, looking like a microsoft Paint in real life, like microsoft Word Art over picture if bad Google Image, supreme look like for me what American graphic designer failer make, when he lose at school, when he inhale to much marijuana and fall asleep photoshop open, screenprint look like Philippine baby no arms make it but American white young boys buy it for what gets a Singapore make suit in Laos? 0.0

>>9737384
>It seems like all it is are basic cotton shirts with the logo slapped on.
they have a lot more shit than that, plenty of good pieces with or without branding (outerwear, jerseys, knits, etc.. all good)

>>9737568
only the hanes three pack tees are hanes tees, and only fuccbois buy that shit

>>9737384

>great about Supreme

No one here actually thinks Supreme is good, you're being trolled. It's a hood nig brand

>>9737416
this.

>>9737762
I havent come to /fa/ in years. I use style zeitgeist. So theres no 'trolling' happening. I just see a bunch of fucks on facebook n shit covered in supreme(mostly white kids). They hang out in groups of good brands like julius ect, but all theyre photos are 'premed to all shit.

>>9737416
Well, that's exactly what I wanted to post.

Designs look fine, I don't think the quality is too great, too obvious logos are always shit.

>>9737547
>>9737878
wowww, lol. Op here, ok now I hate Supreme even more. Blatantly ripped off Kruger's work, and now has the nerve to sue someone else for using the red and white lettering. What a bitch brand, seriously.

>>9737428
with you on that on. Bought a ls, one of the few stuff I actually liked this season.

>>9737926
I don't even understand how you can even sue when it's just a red box with white arial print in the bitch either. I mean isn't that a little TOO general?

LOL I love how everyone is saying "I d-don't like Supreme but I liked their collab with x and I bought this and that"

Like srsly fuck you, if you buy anything from Supreme or follow their collections you're an utter pleb and fuccboi. Just admit you like it, lying about hating it is even more retarded.

>>9737976
I don't really have strong feelings to one way or another about certain brands at all
Most are shit 90% of the time and then you have some good stuff, Super-meme is not really exception.

Supreme is not new; it's had firm roots in the New York streetwear scene since 1994.

With how mainstream it is, you'd expect to to have gone stale like Bape or Stussy, but it still remains popular.

Why?

A. they manage some degree of exclusivity (they keep supply low enough that people still wait in line/online for drops, when they could easily just make huge amounts and avoid that)
B. they're doing collabs with the biggest names in the fashion industry and very very few streetwear brands are large enough to do that. (eg. Nike, North Face, smaller companies like Undercover, CDG shirt)
C. they're really not afraid to stand out, even though i personally dislike their designs (see fireman jacket etc.)

Brooklyn technical High School. Shit just got real bois

only retards buy supreme

>>9738150
complex is equally cancerous

Supreme is utter shit. The only reason exclusivity has gotten them anywhere is because they're continuing to do what they've always done, which was successful in the past and is only successful today BECAUSE it's exclusive. There is hardly any originality anymore.

They only get these collabs because their popularity serves as an avenue for exposure and it's a good business decision because it's profit plus "street cred" for the same audience that's buying their shit plus those buying the brands with whom they collaborate. It's not the other way around - people like Nike, Undercover, etc aren't knocking on their door, begging for the collab. Again, it's a mutually beneficial ploy done out of exclusivity.

The only thing they do to stand out is troll everybody with things like coffee mugs and baseball bats. That's stupid as shit. They don't deserve any credit for furthering fashion or creativity to any capacity within the last decade, if not more.

They're literally just trolls capitalizing on hype with close to zero originality and definitely do not make any contribution to fashion as a whole

>tfw the only things by supreme you really like are their hanes boxer

I don't care for most of their stuff but that Daniel Johnston collab tho

>>9738190
>hardly any originality anymore
so you've followed them at some point? so you're calling yourself out on being an utter pleb and fuccboi

i own a box logo hoodie that i bought back in 2008 when i was living in japan, didn't really know much about the brand and bought into the hype i'll admit

the quality was actually pretty damn great, one of the most comfy pieces of clothing i've ever owned. i've heard their quality has declined in recent years but i wouldn't know.

>>9737727
haha

>>9738190
Thanks for rehashing my post

You're just as unoriginal lmao

>Supreme=Supermeme
damn...

Ya'll hate supreme just because it got popular to the point that all white 13 old kids is wearing it or just can't afford it. Really, Supreme is the only streetwear brand on the market that can make whatever they want, I mean, I dislike most of their designs, but I still have respect for the people behind Supreme. If you don't look like faggot and you can dress well, one supreme item in you will never ruin your fit.

>>9738223

Are you fucking retarded? Being able to track and observe something doesn't mean you follow it in any sense of endorsement. I'm sure there are brands that you are aware of that make things that you think are original, yet wouldn't wear yourself and thus do not "follow" them in any sense of desiring their work. And in the case of Supreme, how can't you? Even casual followers of fashion are subjected to seeing everywhere. If you go on blogs, it's there - you don't have to actively seek it out

>>9738428

You're literally a meme - your whole existence is validated on the internet by anons and that's all you have. Have fun filling that void in when you finally turn 18.

>>9737604
HA HA HA OH WOW

Supreme produces the best quality for the price range. Branded stuff is shit with any brand. Supreme has some hit and miss designs, but the hits are some of the biggest hits there are. Coupled with exclusivity and demand, if you can get a good piece through supreme for retail you are not missing out at all.

>>9740363
I can't tell if this is bait.

1. HBA has succeeded where so many others have failed, and you have to ask why.
2. A.P.C. isn't streetwear, and I don't know why you grouped it with the other brands.

>>9740363
that is the weirdest brand synergy i've ever seen

mcqueen apc and been trill????

>implying the hundreds was ever good

god what a shitty brand

>>9741075
im cooler than that guy

>>9737384
supreme quality is good, its the crowd associated with it that makes people go all whiny about it. Especially kids who were bullied/looked down upon by Supreme swagbois in High school.

I have some non branded supreme clothing and it's on par with APC, Norse projects items i own.

>>9741133
>Especially kids who were bullied/looked down upon by Supreme swagbois in High school.

This actually explains why so many people are so butthurt about a logo. Excellent theory, anon.

>>9740363
Been Trill and Diamond Supply Company both are fucking trash tier. They are low tier streetwear and don't do anything interesting; they have no interesting cuts, even the screenprinting is bland and uninspired. It's just brandspamming.

HBA on the other hand actually understands how to pull off nice screenprinting, but on top of that they actually have some really interesting showpieces (think haute coture), examples include the Asymetrical Blazer and the laser cut plastic collars, as well as 'higher tier' streetwear (high end ready to wear) ranging from the Astronaut prints and illusion blocks to the 'science-y' prints such as the isopach chart or even the Aphex Twin shirt.

B-but Supreme has been around for 21 years. It was cool from day one, a little less cool but still pretty god damn cool in the late 90's up to the mid 2000's. Between 2006-2009 they started getting alot more hype bco slamxhype, hypebeast etc. This brought on alot of new customers. People with little or no resembelance to any of Supremes original customer groups. Around this time (2009 or 10?) Supreme also started selling online for the first time. Then Tyler went bat shit with the bogos. Come 2011-12 and fucking Raekwon is all over tumblr, Lady Gaga and Kate Moss then happened, fake-Safari Camp hype (leopard brim), morons on Instagram are putting boxlogos over their eyes (why?)... and it's still getting worse.

However, thats just 3-4 really bad years out of a pretty epic 21 year old history. Also, Supreme is still just doing what they have always done. What makes them look bad today isn't their clothes style or quality, it's not the way they market them, it's not how and what culture they reference and what they are saying. It's their new retarded customers and all their retarded instagram pics. All the fake shit has also devalued Supreme as a brand (think LV and Burberry).

tl;dr fucking Tyler

>>9737384
Sure. Everyone hates them now. But the second a new seasonal collection comes out there's tons of niggas on here counting down the precious seconds. Then bitching that they didn't get anything because of people with bots.
Fucking hypocrites.

If you are going to put a celeb in your t-shirt and make a poster, those are some top tier names I’d say.

Expensive ashtrays. Skate-tool that doubles as a pipe. Expensive rugs. Hoodies and tee’s that discreetly reference specific types/brands of heroin. Nude calendars. Full fontal nudity and borderline cheese pizza pictures on t-shirts while not giving a fuck. Selling what are basicly LV and Gucci bootlegs openly in their store …not for a quick buck but as a tounge in cheek nod to Canal Street and the whole culture of bootlegging luxury brands. And you know those Lady Gaga pictures? Imagine if Powell Peralta did that with Madonna in 1986.

>supreme band tee is best band tee
New Order, Joy Division, Misfits, King Tubby, Bad Brains, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, James Brown, NWA, Public Enemy, RZA, Ghostface Killa, KRS One, SS Decontrol, The Ronettes + shitloads more

Now thats a pretty god damn epic CV for someone who started out as a skateboard shop, no? The fact that a bunch of fuccboys and morons are jerking off to box logos today doesn’t change any of this. It sadly DOES change how Supreme is viewed by a lot of people - but it’s not really Supremes fault. I am sure they enjoy the extra cash, they seem to have finally accepted their new position. But in the long run the wrong kind of hype (which we are seeing now) will hurt the brand.

>>9746446
cont. cont.

>still being childish and offensive and not giving a fuck
>…as a core skate shop should
«Suck My Cunt». Robert Crumb «Fuck» tee. The Jesus football jersey. «Teenage Lust». The REAS tee with the naked chicks. «Fuck What You Say». «Va Te Faire Foutre!». Doing a series of EZLN tee’s and long sleeves while they are considered an terrorist organization by the USA.

>wish they would do a Mora
Over the years they’ve put out at least four different knifes. A Buck folder, a small Swizz Army knife-ish deal and two keychain knifes. Three or four different bats. Training nunchucks, Everlast boxing gloves etc. Maybe it’s gimmicky but I think it’s neat.

The Zero Lo was designed for Vans by Supreme’s in-house shoe guy Luke Meier. Voted best sneaker in 2010 (?) by the readers of Highsnobiety or some other huge site. Fuccboys galore, of course, but it is what it is.

>affiliated with good skaters
Harold Hunter, Gio Estevez, Peter Bici, Javier Nunez, Justin Pierce, Steve Olson, Eric Koston, Keith Hufnagel, Mark Gonzales, Jason Dill + + + And now they have a bunch of new young guys that are making waves.

Cherry was a good skateboard movie. Shows that they are still serious about skating.

>almost no advertising
Except for in Japan, there have hardly been any advertising in normal media for 21 years. You have to respect that. They used to run ads in Big Brother …that’s a good look! Supporting a local skateboard blog with banner ads is nice too. Poster-ad’s in Sneeze Mag, the box logo on the cover of Relax and a full Supreme issue of Arkitip are also in very good taste.

>considered to be street wear royalty (historically speaking)
Along with Stüssy, Bape, XLARGE, Fuct and a couple of others they pretty much defined it.

>>9746608
Will Larry Clark ever be too old for this?

>>9746615
I'm not sure, in a sense he has always been to old. He was kind of a creep in 1994 - can you imagine today? He's what... almost 70? lol. I'm a huge fan though. Hate pedos but until there is definite proof I will stand by Larry.

What's the deal with Supreme?

>>9746615
Larry's old work is maybe his best defence. In the book Tulsa from 1971 he documents young drug addicts in Tulsa which are around his own age at the time - late teens and early 20's. It's exactly the same as most of his movies and photoseries. Grainy snapshots of fringe youth culture, with lots of bare skin. Maybe not as sexualized as his later work - but he's had the same voice since day 1.

Now that might mean that he was allways a creep. I don't know. But I choose to believe that it's only a result of his style/voice, the subject matters and to some degree a calculated and wanted shock effect from his part.

If he really was a pedo I'm sure someone would have said something at some point. The cast of his movies doesn't seem to have a problem with him at all.

>starts asking me questions like what music I like

>"it was expensive but I love Supreme"
>asks me about my hobbies
>then he says "I play football but I wish I could skateboard. That's the dream right there, I'd love to learn one day" and tells me about this for a few minutes
>finish cig and go back inside

I already knew about Supreme before this happening and what kind of people buy it, but this was unreal. This story is my general opinion of Supreme.
