This video is a disappointment because you’re basically telling us what we already know. Yes supreme only drops on Thursdays and has an insanely dedicated audience. But how did it all start? When did they first go viral? 2012? 1996? What played a part in their initial success? How much were they retailing for at first? What celebrities help create a buzz for the brand initially? Smh, this video just flops.
Check out Hasan Minaj’s Patriot Act on Netflix. He did a segment on Supreme that explains it way better than this video. I think all of his videos are on UA-cam as well if you search up “Patriot Act Supreme.”
Saying supreme doesn’t do marketing is stupid. All these celebrities and Kanye west wearing it is all the marketing they need. That’s the way to market.
@@JoshWaller you must not understand. hes not referring to the art they use on t shirts which is licensed. rather the actual design they have is based off of someone else's design
this is also the reason why branding is powerful. sometimes, people don't know they're buying something that is made cheaply but sold at an expensive price. they would buy anything with that "Supreme" logo attached to it.
Whitespace Collective well its astonishing less than the overpriced amount they charge. And not just understandably more overpriced, but ridiculously more overpriced.
Supreme: literally red box logo with white text. 9:35 Guy: supreme is literally pushing the limit and defining street fashion. I wish I get a partner half as loyal as these Hypebeasts are to supreme
It is, currently I haven’t seen anybody other than a 40 year old dad trying to be hip wear anything that is supreme. Some people do wear the less loud pieces that actually look fire, but the box logos aren’t that cool anymore imo
@@adriangutierrez3196 Your right and wrong yes supreme hype has died down a bit then before but you still have people who are still willing to pay for the box logo or the less loud pieces
How can a species be so smart to where they can split the atom, walk on the moon, and etc, but also be so stupid and foolish at the same time... We are an amazing creature 🧐😂😂
I'm very shocked how many people think they're educated on here that are supporting this brand spending their parents money and thinking they have culture from wearing a t-shirt they say the quality is worth the money you keep doing you brother it's nice to see there is still intelligent life out there....
John Patrick it has nothing to do with anything you said lol. It’s wearable art people set the prices on these things because of cost and demand like what are you even saying have you never gone through a high school basic economic class? Like there is nothing to bash on..
The fact that a clothing company can cause this much vitriol in the comment section by literally doing nothing extraordinary is pretty exceptional and admirable. In that regard, Supreme comes across as a successful street artist disguised as a clothing company.
How is it exceptional and admirable? The video is literally about the brand so of course people in the comment section are going to be talking about it.
For everone saying supreme is just a cheap tee shirt you dont get the concept of hype culture. It's the same way Apple can sell 1,000 dollar phones while other companies can sell for cheaper with sometimes the same or even better quality it's more of a status symbol and what it stands for than the actual quality itself
This is just as stupid as the handbags profiled here a couple weeks ago, if not worse. If you’re buying a brick or a crowbar (ffs) because of the logo, the joke is on you. And you’re going to be left with a pretty brick or crowbar that isn’t worth beans when the music stops.
Drew Conway exactly , this model of reselling for 6x more is not sustainable. Once people stop caring about supreme all their merch will be worthless. Worth as much as a brick or crowbar
It was so funny when people were actually surprised that the Chinese counterfeits were the same quality as the original Supreme... Umm.. where do you think they`re all made at? Also how hard is it to create a stamped on T-shirt??
y’all didn’t even mention how supreme started off as a small skate shop in new york and how they always try to touch back on their roots from time to time
How did that kid make 10k for the summer? especially when the supreme resell market is crashing. You used to be able to sell any supreme items at a markup price but now only few items per drop can be sold with a markup.
I wouldn't buy fakes But lately I have been buying no brand made in China clothes on ebay cause they're cheap. I do recommend you stay away from made in china jeans they are always low quality. But stuff like tshirts and hats you'll be able to get for a lot less compared to buying brand name. I've also gotten some good quality jewlerly. I figured it would be cheap costume jewlerly but no it's nice and sturdy.
ncbming The only way most people can buy supreme is through said Resale markets, I seriously question if YOU watched the video. Since The majority of people who wear supreme have to buy it through 2nd hand sellers it’s crazy expensive !
Vikas Ahlawat how many times will I have to explain. If you like a product, the expense doesn’t make you less or more smart. Just respect what products people like.
*At first.... "I would never wear a fake. I can't stand fakes." But then just seconds later after mentioning that Supreme actually copies/steals themselves ... "Good artists copy great artists, steal. Like that's just kind of the name of the game in fashion."*
From an investors standpoint I can understand buying and flipping the stuff. But I don't understand buying something that with use will decrease in value
i saw these being sold by an ex-kpop celeb who opened her own store maybe 2 yrs ago and it wasn't that big. all of a sudden, everyone in china seemed to have the same gucci shirt or supreme.
From learning about marketing/ sales in business, its sad to see the impact it has on human beings. This shows that people are willing to do or become anything in order to "feel good" about themselves.
If you think the people who are buying supreme don't make sense, you're half right. The world has always made sense, it's your model of the world that needs to be updated.
I believe that people's focus on Trends, fads, and brands to look cool or as a means to identify themselves distracts those individuals from experiences that creates true lasting value in life.
I think its compensation, they cling onto brands to feel good about themselves. Its also easy. They can let the brand decide their fashion for them, they just pick and wear, no mixing and matching and scowering stores to make good sets of clothing
Sooo Supreme is the beanie babies of today? Down to the business model. Limited releases to get people to buy more. Hype up the aftermarket sales so people buy even more as 'investments', bringing up sales and profits. Though that aftermarket bubble always bursts.
I get that they say that supreme doesn't spend money on advertising but they have to spend some kind of money because they have there own metro card and put their logo on the newyorktimes that might not be considered advertising but for me it kind of does.
"those things will be in museums in 50 years" - LOL , not its just a smart business model to make you think that "these things will be in museums in 50 years" :) Like any kind of collectibles, even digital items in online games, at some point it all becomes useless, because it is not art or design, it is ONLY logo.
The problem is that Supreme is NOT a registred brand with an R, so these "fakes" outthere are considering this not fake, they simply dont come from Supreme New York.
i get my supreme gear from china with a fraction of price. and the best part about this, people can't even tell the difference whether its legit or fake.
The House of Diesel began the minimalist Red and white popping logo. DIESEL for successful living. A far out and high quality, chic and cheapish styles. Low key best clothing brand since late 80s-90s rave culture. Diesel still remains cat walk apparel and worthy in both fashion sub cultures.

Tyler the Creator is the reason Supreme is worth billions of dollars
Ask Patrick bet David at valuetainment to uncover this. You wont be disappointed
Peter Eze amen!
This is interesting for people who don't really know much about what supreme is, besides a well known very expensive brand
Answer: hype culture
Simple.
not anymore since the company is become mass market... but yeah still only sell at someplace incertain time
You mean odd future
Stupid
This brand is the perfect example on how society values something ordinary.
& how quickly people disregard a human life!
yeah. pretty sad
Big Facts!!!
Supreme mastered the power of marketing.
I wish I had a company like this
I think this is about 3 years too late.
shawn Money when everyone tried to flip everything , no matter what it was
As a millennial I'm waiting for natural selection. Imagine telling your kids you dropped a $100 on a brick with the words "supreme" on it...yikes
Then imagine them selling it for double
@@fredk6992 Better sell it fast before Supreme prices drop like a brick!
@Yensen Connor yes, all the people protesting the lockdown
Same here. Also I love your username. Kpoop is cancer like the hypebeasts
Facts 😂
This is the most depressing thing I've ever seen
It's like the years before the fall of the Roman empire..
Ok boomer 💀 😬 🤦♂️
Imagine being a broke boi
indeed, but your comment made me laugh! hahaha
@@NguyenTran-fv2rk why not, its probably better :)
Saying supreme doesn’t do marketing is stupid.
All these celebrities and Kanye west wearing it is all the marketing they need. That’s the way to market.
Do they especially spend money on advertising?

So SUPREME hate fakes but can uses someone art design.

@@RL-ww5ev White text on red background is not stealing, Copying the exact logo is stealing, am I right?
@@nathmod2198 They stole the artwork of Barbara Kruger, take a look at her work and you'll see it's a little bit worse than "great artists steal"
John Patrick That is a stupid comment. You are clearly very stupid if you can’t understand what I meant.
Guy: I would never wear a fake , I don’t even wanna see a fake
Also Guy: Artists copy other artists so it is what it is
this is also the reason why branding is powerful. sometimes, people don't know they're buying something that is made cheaply but sold at an expensive price. they would buy anything with that "Supreme" logo attached to it.
Supreme logo looks like the brand of my cheap local supermarket. Never understood how people want to buy this?!
I want to see a documentary of fools bought this brand with regrets on their faces now that the hyped died down😂
count me in
some jeans and a supreme box logo tee and a jean jacket would be a hard fit and it’s not plastered with hype brands
Low quality shirts which cost $2-3 selling for $32 and reselling for over >$100. Don’t believe the hype 👎
That was "Overhype", looks like they can't cool off the hype after all!
Supreme is a hit or miss when it comes to quality
JAG214 I love their hats and tees
Supreme actually uses some of the best blanks for their shirts/hoodies, factor in overhead costs, that $2-$3/shirt assumption is probably way off.
Whitespace Collective well its astonishing less than the overpriced amount they charge. And not just understandably more overpriced, but ridiculously more overpriced.
Supreme: literally red box logo with white text.

Guy: supreme is literally pushing the limit and defining street fashion.

not all of their products are box logos..
I thought the whole Supreme thing was over

The initial wave is dead but you have to wait until every brain dead sheep catches up to the hype and goes through the cycle...
Carson Nelder imagine calling another man a 'virgin' for using out-dated slang 🤣🤣🤣 you must be great with people outside of social media
Remember Beanie Babies? You don’t have to be good, just know how to influence the moronic Masses.

What does street art have to do with this video?
@s cee And your just as dumb as the original poster if you think anyone associates Supreme with 'street art'.
How is it exceptional and admirable? The video is literally about the brand so of course people in the comment section are going to be talking about it.
So basically what makes supreme special is, that those who buy something knows that there's stupid people out there which will pay way more for it
You can make a custom shirt exactly like this for under 10$.
For everone saying supreme is just a cheap tee shirt you dont get the concept of hype culture. It's the same way Apple can sell 1,000 dollar phones while other companies can sell for cheaper with sometimes the same or even better quality it's more of a status symbol and what it stands for than the actual quality itself
If a brick and plastic bag can sell, imma sell air 😂
Mai 3 the gasstations here do that already. In Western Europe we have to pay for air when we pump it into our car tires
Well that sucks. Our gas station offer free air.
They sell air already.. 2 Chainz showed it on his show
You get a L for this because they are already selling air and all you had to do was google it or youtube it
@@JAG214 L for idiots who bought air 😂

Drew Conway exactly , this model of reselling for 6x more is not sustainable. Once people stop caring about supreme all their merch will be worthless. Worth as much as a brick or crowbar
why would anyone buy supreme bricks

Right same with thrasher
All skateboard stuff coming out from 1994 to 2000 was almost like designer quality. T shirts mad thick
Those 2 guys act like every items resells
How did that kid make 10k for the summer? especially when the supreme resell market is crashing. You used to be able to sell any supreme items at a markup price but now only few items per drop can be sold with a markup.

In ten years thrift stores will be called supreme stores
Supreme is just clever business and that's it.
Supreme is like the supermarket of Streetwear, it's simple enough that everyone can understand it but not good enough for high fashion.
Uniqlo t shirts have better quality than $38 supreme tees
Saiman Rahman 😂 nah fam
Still need that benjamin basketball to drop this season
You rock and keep up the good work all of you.

It's just a T-shirt.

Fun fact: supreme isnt that expensive but yet if i wear a box logo that i got for 50 people think i bought it for 500
If you think the people who are buying supreme don't make sense, you're half right.
The world has always made sense, it's your model of the world that needs to be updated.

Now I realize this brand called “BALR.” Is just a rip off of Supreme. This brand is huge in europe, even the font is the same (Futura Bold). Dafuq
Ralph B target audience is completely different 😂🤣 know your fashion houses
The problem is that Supreme is NOT a registred brand with an R, so these "fakes" outthere are considering this not fake, they simply dont come from Supreme New York.
No chance this could end up worthless. Humans never overvalue anything, ever.😅
Thanks for the business tips
Holy crap this is insane 👀
"hater" and "elevated" don't rhyme tho
Lol out at the same time as today’s drop coincidentally
I love how so many people pay hundreds for a white shirt with a red logo on it
There’s nothing special about this brand.. it’s just text.. any 1 can print their own lol
