thanks for digging this up

interesting piece and its interesting how the article foreshadowed some things and seemed ahead of its time on others

There used to be a great compilation of Shadi Perez's photography for Supreme and Stussy on his website, but I don't think it's there anymore. I will have to check if I've got it saved somewhere.

great post I give it another 24hours before some idiot ruins it!looking forward to pulling these in to my archive folder when i get home tomo

Awesome post fella!

It's not until you read the interviews like that you notice what Supreme really means. It's rich in culture, its not even a joke.

Plus the amount business/brands that have come out of it is nuts!

supreme's spin offs (and their spin offs) have def had a far reaching effect on street culture and fashion...pretty crazy

great article.

the issue was published fall 2001, did a-ron foreshadow sept. 11th? dude was talking about how things are gonna change in the world real soon

james jebbia also has an interesting quote:

"But I also like the idea of someone who actually knows design, and knows whats good, to come in and be like: 'I may not like skateboarding, but this shop is dope.'"

also what is that planet of the apes thing about? is that some ssur thing? or is he talking about the film remake? didn't get that part at all

Thanks for this. Supreme is neither my culture nor my aesthetic, but I am still fascinated by their history.

Sick post R&S, I was hoping that somebody would start a thread like this.

Here are a couple of ads that ran in Thrasher in 1994, maybe some of the first Supreme ads ever.

ah, a time when mass appeal and supreme were both awesome

mass appeal is essentially the biggest joke ever at this point, its actually kind of depressing
