Until, that is, it appears again, on SupTalk or eBay, for considerably more than its original price. Online, these hyped up pieces sell out in milliseconds-for $130, you can buy a "bot" that purchases your desired piece as soon as it appears in the e-store-and Supreme produces limited stock, so when it's gone, it's gone.
#UNIQUE HYPE SUPREME FULL#
In this group, you'll find the many denominations of Supreme devotee, from aging hype-beasts and 13-year-old rich kids to skaters, Insta-celebs, and the stamp collectors of the streetwear generation: the guys-and they are always guys-who'll buy up every color of one specific cap, or the full set of Supreme x Stone Island jackets, or each and every T-shirt featuring the brand's iconic box logo.īefore each "drop day," SupTalk members discuss their favorite upcoming items-the Morrissey T-shirt, for example, or the snakeskin shoe from an Air Max collaboration that's released a couple of months after I visit the store. Europe's largest Facebook page to buy, sell, trade, and chat Supreme is SupTalk, which, with nearly 60,000 members, surely outnumbers the continent's lesser-populated youth tribes-cyber-goths, say, or people who are deadly serious about vaping. The fandom is essentially a subculture in itself. However, by Supreme standards, these are all middling brand obsessions-their followers the fair-weather fans to Supreme's ultras: the kids who wait in line, the adult men who'll pay silly money for vintage Supreme-branded incense sticks. Ralph Lauren had its " Lo-Lifes," a group of guys from Brooklyn who spent the early 90s stealing as much Polo as they could. No other clothing brands command this kind of devotion. A couple of weeks after my visit, the London shop manager tells Supreme's British disciples that if they're planning a pilgrimage they'll need to start lining up on Thursday morning-instead of Wednesday night-because the weekly influx of rough sleepers in $300 trainers is rankling the local government. Every time Supreme releases chunks of new stuff at its ten stores across Europe, America, and Japan-which is every Thursday from the start of each collection-hundreds of people skip school or work to get first dibs. He's happy to pay for a flight and a hotel-and then wait in line for six hours-in the hope he'll find anything in his size, even if it's just a pair of boxer shorts. Werner knows he isn't getting the Morrissey shirt it'll have sold out long before he makes it inside, along with all the other stuff he actually wants. The photo he didn't want Supreme to use, he said, because they once collaborated with a burger chain-and also just because he didn't like the face he was pulling. The majority of people waiting in line are heading straight for the shirt featuring a photo of gloomy vegetarian Morrissey. You may have to select a menu option or click a button.In about an hour, the doors to Supreme's London store will be opened, and everyone here-tired Nick patient Werner teenagers from Cardiff, Newcastle, and Canterbury the guy wearing a Supreme sleeping bag like a Snuggie-will get their chance to walk inside, past the sculpture of a smiley white ghost, and flick through the first batch of caps, coats, hoodies, and T-shirts released this season.
