worst (sufu) waywt fits

[Baeyer-Drewson]

You knowhat really annoys me about Supreme? It used to be a skate brand but now non-skaters wear it too. Life is so unfair.

[Leonard Leroy]

But what if supreme puts out a miles davis shirt and i'm a fan of miles davis oh damn

I'm also a fan of tyson

and i like seeing kate moss naked

and kermit the frog was one of my childhood heroes

[Baeyer-Drewson]

But you're misappropriating culture by wearing brand if you don't do activity.

[OkayOkay]

I wanna give Fap some credit, I definitely understand where he's coming from. His criticism is relevant to him and a handful of other people and I think it's totally reasonable. Supreme is a tough one because they actively pursue a market outside skateboarding and have definitely ridden a wave of success on the backs of people that don't know the history of the brand, don't skate, and in Morse's case...wear it for e-cred alone. I'd be surprised if the people he's referring to, and maybe Morse is one of them (or maybe not), would ever buy something that didn't distinctly say "SUPREME" on it for everyone else to see, and I think that's where the criticism is valid. It definitely doesn't apply to everyone, or even most people, and to most Fap's reasoning seems ridiculous...but I kinda feel the same way when I see a landlocked kid wearing a Channel Islands tee. I'm like...yo, you've never surfed in your life. You've never slopped through 2ft closeouts in 50 degree water at 6am and pulled the same frigid wetsuit back on 3 hours later when the surf picks back up. I know it's just a tee shirt, but that kid is trying to show others that he identifies with people that surf, but to those of us that actually do we're just like...really man. Really. Now that CI apparel (and other more true surf brands) are being distributed far away from the coast and into areas they have no relation to other than the ability to sell a tee, that argument invalidates itself cause the brand is stepping away from its roots, just like Supreme has. Not sure if any of this makes sense, it might to Fap, but I guess if you want to have your other non-surfer friends think you jump in the water every now and then, then pull on that CI tee.

tl;dr version:

Hey guys, I know how to surf

How come nobody's getting mad at the people who wear Hurley and don't surf?

[35percent]

Because Hurley doesn't have $80 limited edition tees in new york boutiques, duh. Or some shit like that.

I wouldn't say mad but i get disappointed when people wear hurley no matter what they're doing...

[cheapmuthafukr]

[OkayOkay]

I guess it's kind of a moot point anyways, since that Mtv commercial with OF wearing Supreme started running a few weeks ago I've had dozens of kids coming in asking if we carry "Tyler the Creator hats"...I just tell them to go to the website and they usually respond with "what's Supreme".

i don't wear supreme(much) and this angers me

[OkayOkay]

my point exactly. It's just different levels of elitism (not a negative) I think. Not to beat a dead horse or keep this going, I just see Fap's point. I'm pretty sure it applies to everyone here, maybe not for Supreme but for something.

[sawn-off chef]

Ayekilla needs to be more careful when shaving his legs.

[stuntastic]

Because surfers already did.

Anyone get it yet?

When there's a clothing line that's originally marketed towards and styled for a certain subculture, and people who aren't apart of that subculture wear the clothing for fashion, that subculture is going to get upset about it. Skateboarding, surfing, BMX, hip-hop, metal, Chinese labor (a Superfuturians dad was apart of this debate before,) it's the same fuckin noise.

I'm surprised at how stupid some of you guys are sounding. Considering how you people flaunt this forum as being the "best," you guys sound like idiots when it comes to differentiating style, fashion, and everything in between.

And to say that you wouldn't be able to tell a dude was a skater without him holding a skateboard... wrong. Skaters are built a certain way and hold themselves a certain way. Same as surfers. Can't figure out if a dudes a surfer or not?

In dumbass fashionisto term, it's called "swag."

[Baeyer-Drewson]

I'm just glad everyone is off that button-up trend, as an authentic button-up wearer it was really starting to irritate me.

[stuntastic]

There is a whole lifestyle/principle to wearing button ups. So ya know...

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Baeyer-Drewson again.

[Denton]

can't tell if srs

authenticity is an illusion

nothing is real

what is the matrix

and everyone stfu

[Baeyer-Drewson]

This is fucking terrible. I mean, he looks like he's skating (chopped?) but he's wearing Supreme, so now I have a headache from the cognitive dissonance.

srs edit: no hate cheap, that's a hella clean ollie ;P

[OAS1S]

i get you're joking but he's wearing a supreme tee

You're absolutely wrong. Maybe professional skater (but I doubt it), but apart from maybe not being fat, that's it. And I didn't say you couldn't tell if someone was a skater without holding a board, I said that someone dressed in Supreme without a board, the average person wouldn't know they skate.

thanks for the lesson on swag.

say, remember about a year ago you were near tears because your parents didn't say congratulations after you got your drivers license?

[NatseOklim]

i get you're joking but he's wearing a supreme tee

And basketball shoes(7.5)

[okonomi]

How the fuck are people seriously still talking about Supreme, in 2011?

Have you looked at what they've been releasing for the past, 3-5 years? It all sucks.

[halomunkey]

okonomi you are right. it's strayed so far away from its skateboarding roots to be considered a legitimate clothing company anymore. How the fuck am I supposed to look like a skater in leopard print lining.

[DüM]

okonomi, chill with the "in 2011" shit

you're 18.

thanks bro.
