arguing over clothes, arguing over screenames, aguing over street cred, colours, pics, arguing over who's right, in fact....arguing for arguments sake...this thread is informative and pathetic in equal measure, i wish it was more the former...i'm considering making a Supreme FAQ for each season which would be a compendium of everything (size, prices, colours) to get rid of crap questions....would do you think?

anyways.....what are owners opinions on the backpack this season? Lookwise i MUCH prefer last seasons but anyone have details on this one? The navy one with the print is quite cool...

I bought the brown backpack for myself. Despite its boxy appearance, the bag seems to look alright when worn, and compared to last season's bag, it actually has a much larger main compartment. I have found that the pouches on the sides and front are much more useable. Last season, the only really useful mini compartment was the top one, and when the bag wasn't full, anything inside this compartment caused the bag to look collapsed, thus covering the supreme box logo. Lastly, I do think that the shoulder straps from this season could have been done a little better because they seem rather cheap, resembling a standard Eastpak from Target. And no metal buckles? Overall, I think its a decent bag made of pretty good material. Hope this helps.

i can totally believe it,outside of this little bubble no cares about supreme,particulary if it hasnt got a box logo on it.alot sits on racks until sale time

hype this season has been on a much larger range of items but it wasnt this crazy last year or years before that..

I think the website generated alot of hype as it gave people away from the stores a chance to beast over the cut & sew.

markup is alot in 3rd party Supreme outlets. From what i know stores have to pay retail on goods (or at least close to it). For example tees at Nomad in TO are $60, and the leather bomber was $1000 ( i know ridiculous)

this thread is fucking retarded but i can't turn away from it.. It's like midget porn once you start you cant stop.

it's really confusingly addictive

Seriously? I can't believe they're selling common projects kicks and can't move supreme.

I'm sure all the tee's sold very well, but when it comes to other merchandise that I'm sure they were required to buy, it sat.... I know westside was going to pick me up all the supreme chinos for $60 at cmonwealth they had been sitting there at that price for 2 months...

I'm sure that wouldnt have been the case if Supreme allowed online sale of their items. Considering all the hoopla around this brand its really sobering to hear that the stuff doesnt always fly off the shelves. But then there are always a few items each season that no one seems to want.

I doubt it. Cmonwealth is one of the most hyped up streetwear stores, carrying some of the most hyped up brands. And even IF Supreme wasn't selling, they would be stupid to drop the line as it creates and generates interest and directs traffic towards the store. Why does Dodge still produce the Viper? That car doesn't sell at all but the attention it brings the brand is worth it.

'Loss-leader'.

Look it up.

im quite aware of the term,Im not gonna start a argument over it,lost leaders only work if you can buy small orders if they wer having to buy alot of stock(and supreme tend to send what they want i believe)then it becomes not worth it for either party as supreme wont like seeing alot of thier gear on sale.saying that i couldnt really care less why they dont stock anymore as it dosent affect me in the slightest.

backing Seenmy on this. From having spoken with another small Supreme account, they weren't thrilled about having to take some of the higher ticket items as they struggled to sell more than the sweats, caps and t's but Supreme want you to take a full representation of their range to hold an account.
