School Supplies: Supreme Goods

-Hypebeast tipped us off to the re-launch of Supreme's web store earlier today. While I was fairly disappointed with my own visit to Supreme, in part due to their lack of original gear, they really pulled out all of stops with their new collection. The new emphasis on throwback gear and cut and sew items has me trying to go back as soon as possible. Here are a few of our favorites...
-Despite their upscale SoHo roots, Supreme based several of their new items on blue-collar classics. Overpriced boutique flannel has become much too prevalent as of late, but Supreme's renderings are distinctive enough to warrant a second look.

-As for throwback gear, Supreme has gone back to the year of their inception, 1994, to resurrect the two items that defined 1st grade. If you can pull off the fannypack nowadays, then more power to you, but that is one relic that even a Supreme logo can't salvage.

-Lastly, Supreme decided to jump on the Obama-tee bandwagon with the following shirt, which is certainly more subtle than the others.
