This channel is a piece of commercial Art itself. Really amazing. Your animations are something else, crucial to illustrate the narrative and I can appreciate that you have few released videos given that you do each one with a lot of aesthetic effort. Well done
The Best video you guys ever made. Wow great work guys I mean A+++. Great job to your whole team everything was on point! Everything even the score music
But.....now it IS a trendy streetwear brand....it IS an Instagram flex....I understand it started as an awesome genuine skate culture brand, but it’s not that anymore. It’s a trendy logo and nothing else now do to the people buying it.
@@SpartanFx-ln2sr true, but that's not the fault of the brand, it's the fault of the people. Kind of inevitable when something has such high demand and such low quantity.
I disagree. I love that they put people onto bands like My Bloody Valentine and The Velvet Underground. They show love to true legends like Buju Banton and Naomi Campbell, and while I may not like every drop, I still usually buy one or two items a week. I first walked into that store to buy new tape in 1996 and have loved it since.
Nah bro u clearly don’t understand that supreme doesn’t fw those people they still doing what they been doing since they started this company if people want to buy it for the trend is their problem they will never understand the real roots of supreme
Nothing crazy lol. They were a NYC skate crew who did random crazy edits and random crazy photoshopped stuff, people loved them, so they made merch (with bad quality actually and expensive prices for what it was, because they had no money) which eventually made them more rich and more powerful! They have an interview on I dunno where which explains all that!
Great content guys, much appreciated! Glad I found your channel recently as your vids have helped me gain some much-needed inspiration to a recent creative slump I've found myself in... So, again, much appreciated!
ion whooked lol streetwear came from stussy if you wanna be this technical! They kinda changed how streetwear could be and pushed the limits. That’s all.
Supreme kind of set themselves up to become a streetwear clothing company through all the hype and exclusivity as well as their collaboration with LV. I love their designs, but it's hard for me to take them seriously as a "grimy street brand" when most of their stuff is resold for crazy prices and worn by the rich. It's like wearing a fur coat and saying that you're trying to represent the life of the wild animal you killed. Yes you can argue that the resale is out of their control, but it's 100% done on purpose to generate hype and make the brand seem more upscale. They can't just say "oops didn't mean to" when they control the supply.
I worked for James in Stussy and I’ll say this. The man was driven and a very shrewd man. That saying he really had a finger on the pulse of the streets back then. From the whole vibe in the shop he would play the coolest music and nobody really got to touch it except him. You could say he was a bit of a control person but he knew what he wanted. A lot of my buddies went on to work at SUPREME . It was a really dope shop. He always made sure we got anything we wanted to wear if we wanted to rock something that day. Right of the shelf. You may be wearing my old second hand shirts lol
I first saw Supreme in 2003 as a Freshman in highschool in NJ. My friend Joey Bats would wear it to school. He was one of the small handfull of people in my class of 1000 kids in my grade that skated. His older brothers all grew up skating and so I think they passed on a lot of style to him, including Supreme, having worn it during the 90s. It was apparently attainable then and more core to skateboarding back then. We both still skate today, as does 9/10 people in that group. Joe is extremely fashionable and did a lot for ONLY NY for a bit, not sure if he is still with them.
Hey Guys, thank you so much for this breakdown of the brand : Supreme!...about 2 weeks ago I though this very though, “how the brand was able to slap their name of a brick priced at 200$”?!....I think about the science behind brands and how they get us to consume!...thank you so much for this clear, visual explanation!!...I appreciate you guys...I will show my appreciation very soon!
Damn yo. Idk if you skate but you did the research for real. Also your references to art history are commendable. Impressive shit, thought this video wouldn’t get it right like most of the media
i fuxk wit the origins and the real brands they’ve branched but aren’t they partly ownered my The Carlyle Group now ? which kinda contradicts everything
One person you should look into is Andrew Lee of Commissary, based out of Costa Mesa, CA. He was originally from New York and was actively involved with Supreme back in the 90’s as well, so once he made his way to the golden coast, he opened up Commissary in the early 00’s, and was the ONLY location that carried Supreme officially outside of the notable landmarks of Los Angeles, New York, and Tokyo at the time. Since then, he’s also collaborated with some well known brands in the industry, most recently Anti Social Social Club, and Vans. I’m sure you’ll have a great time looking into this man, as he is known for his dislike of interviews, and public notoriety. I know the man personally, but I would like to see what you guys are able to dig up. It’ll be a very fun investigation
Dude I this video is on point, I’ve been collecting supreme for 10years and I still am till now anything in my collection is cos I genuinely love the piece, I’ve never bought supreme for clout I love collecting supreme because of the art behind it.
Only thing worse than hypebeast kids is hipsters who think they know more about the "street culture" than everyone else, and that makes them more worthy.
ive been a fan for about 3 months and the only criticism i have for any video on this channel is the audio mixing. I just think the acoustics in the room you record in are too high! Keep working this video was dope!
Hi Kins, thanks for the support, we just got a new studio space where we will be recording most of our stuff. sorry for the quality of the audio so far. we are always getting better. more dope content coming soon.
Great video and didn’t know much about Supreme, besides it being super popular with the hipster kids. I’m older, but alway followed my own style and trends and lead instead of follow others. Anyway, learned about the owner and it’s great to lead and have many follow and I used to own a popular house music record store and almost everything I said was going to hit big, it did and made ppl. listen to me and shop at my store. Also, I used to love the Parachute brand from the 80’s and they had their own look and style. So it was nice to know this guy used to work for them. I never hear anyone speak about Parachute or even see their clothes in the used market and they were ahead of their time. I actually bought a parachute shirt at a garage sale about 3 years ago for like $7.00 and I’ll never be able to wear it, but the short means a lot to me and super rare for a brand that made a pretty impact on the fashion scene. Yeah, it takes talent to make trend forecasts and not everyone can do it, even tho everyone wants to be a designer.
Do you still remember the 90s with its countless brands, does it still exist today? I had an Apple New York t-shirt, rare... or a Dope Tape sweatshirt. Unfortunately the quality was so shitty that it just didn't survive for long :D
I suscribed to their mailing list weeks ago and still haven't received anything. (Yes, I've checked the spam box.) I don't deserve them yet cause THEY'RE SO COOOOOL!!!!!!!
I have a brand called JazzduMétro. I started as a busker in the Paris subway and already I sold two hoodies to a guy in the UK and also have sold 30 Tees.
This is a great back story that a lot of kids should watch before following trends. I'm 20 yo and I wear weird clothe according to my peers but it's what you stand for that makes the clothe "strange" not the actual clothe itself! Or maybe I'm wrong 😂
Bruh what are you on about? Who says I have to love those artists to love supreme. In fact, if it weren’t for supreme, half of the collabs they do with artists, these hype beasts and I would not even know about them. It’s not the other way around where I had to know the original collaboration to be able to enjoy it.
Hmmm energy around supreme is electric, the close knit culture and relationship between them and youth skate culture is what has lead to thousands becoming interested, the secondary market potential only driving more people towards it, something controlled carefully buy supreme while they grow exponentially.
For those who know- Supreme has a story so dense, we had to make 2 videos to tell it.
PART 2: ua-cam.com/video/RKrML0d9XdI/v-deo.html

Now this guy got me sitting in front of laptop nervously every 11am Thursday.
Supreme sold bricks, just remember that.
They did it to show that people will buy whatever shit that has a supreme logo on it
They just wanted to flex their gangsta by moving some bricks.
they dont give a fuuck. they had a shirt ehgre it says "motherfucker" its real strrt lifff
Why not 🤷🏾♂️
