Supreme F/W 2009

[mlproject]

is there a loose gauge beanie in store right now? planning on heading down there later, but don't want to waste the trip if there isn't. readytoignite, i know you know!

[ms. sally]

no loose gauge (titled Basic Beanie this year?) as of yesterday. They have the fine gauge and twisted yarn i think.

Personally my favorite beanies are the ones they use for the patch beanies, just less the patch. Its the most worm and holds its shape with heavy wear (bobo street vender ones always end up warping after a month). Price is usually the same or $2 more, so really buying something and removing that "special" quality still makes sense to me and I end up with a plain beanie by supreme.

For real, these are some weird ass collabs. I'm a huge jazz head, but how many Supreme kids are into jazz? And why go for the huge huge names?

If they were trying to do some tight jazz shit they'd have a Mingus photo tee

Mingus is too West Coast. Supreme is all about New York; Big Apple. (except for the Vans i guess)

[mlproject]

yeah all th ebeanies are pretty branding heavy. was going to for something simple, watch cap steez that isn't crappy without the $125 mr freedom price tag.

[ms. sally]

I'd just wait for the God and Country Beanie and remove the patch.

since when have they focused on their consumer base for musical taste? and how is it weird?

What about the +J Uniqlo beanies?

They're cashmere, not wool like the Mr. Freedom watch cap. Then again, Supreme's loose gauge beanies are acrylic.

haven't been in there to check out what beanies they have right now. last time i was in there everything was fucking huge dread cap slouchy style. thanks for the reco.

[Bungee Man]

can you post the measurements for your size?

particularly the chest size(pit to pit) , if that's what made people think it was snug.

thanks!

My medium measures 22.25 inches from pit to pit and 28 inches from highest point shoulder to bottom hem.

[readytoignite]

i was going to say the same thing but the +j beanies are long gone. i'll sell you mine for $500 though - it's cashmere! and no branding...

i don't see mingus as a smaller name than trane. anyway i suspect it all has to do with jebbia's personal taste in jazz, next stop joe henderson. see you all at the wfmu record fair muthafuckas

btw i don't get the hate for the recent back designs for all their music t-shirts - i probably could do without the huge box logo but otherwise it's all just part of the story, n'est ce pas?

Why are Supreme's pants so short?

[16steps]

Why are Supreme's pants so short?

because most 16 year old asians are

[ericdw]

because most 27 year old asians are

i love it. they're the only pants i dont have to hem.

[JohnnyRed]

ehhh, i'm gonna be reckless here and assume that most of sufu has listened to coltrane some time or other

but alas - if there's a box logo on that tee, people will camp

The first Miles tee was dope cause it was a nice flip on an iconic picture of him. The batch of miles album tees was stupid though, just prints that you can get for 10 bucks at any jazz festival.

Yeah I bet most people have heard some Coltrane and Miles and Lou Reed, but it doesn't make it any less ridiculous to camp out for and pay top dollar. I just think it's weird to see skate culture and jazz overlap like that, didn't really realize there was much overlap at all

[16steps]

you think dudes are gonna be lining up for this?

the execution of the nefertiti t-shirt pretty much killed the tutu t-shirt; i dare you to find a graphic print like that at "any jazz festival."

supreme is not skate culture, it's downtown culture. in that context none of these activities are surprising (or at least as compared to freaking bicycle cards)

[jackers]

looking to trade DS black tweed box 3/8 in the same color in 1/4. the 3/8 fits kinda big. or someone can buy for retail + shipping

Yeah you're right, the nefertiti was the only good one out of the batch. On the corner was just stupid though. I just wish they'd do more like the tutu shirt and do a flip of some of the old classic shit, instead of just a straight up print

[dunkin deeznuts]

i also think because Jebbia (and Maryann, his ex-wife or gf) loves jazz, they probably push for the jazz stuff quite a bit.....

For people debating Timberline vs. actual Barbour Jacket, found a site selling wide range at 50-60% off.

http://fishingthecape.com/barbour-apparel.html

Some of the jackets are priced lower than Supreme's. Shipping is cheap as well. Only $5 in the US.

Anyone got the plane or moto shorts in sz 30 or 32 (khaki) for sale? Pm me!

Ordered a work jacket last night around 5PM and UPS tried to deliver it today. Boston's not far from NY, but still.

Funny how customer service goes up when sales slow down. Pics to come.

[ericdw]

that's like zappos quickness.

I'm assuming you live in Dorchester?

from my perspective it makes sense - any dumb streetwear company can crank out t-shirts flipping a design. it takes a lot more to actually do a real collaboration. the downside is the IP/logos etc are owned by risk-averse major corporations so you're not going to get a lot of freedom to get crazy

my question is why the miles / trane apparel has been limited only to t-shirts - it would have been great to see a jacket design or something thrown in

[Dead_Wizard]

Yea, the Bad Brains harrington was pretty underrated. Wish they'd do more stuff like that.
