Two of the culture’s most beloved brands are partnering up. A SUPREME and Nike collaboration is on the way.

Last week the New York City based label unveiled their newest cobranded effort. This time it is with Nike and as expected the capsule covers off on several streetwear staples intended to bring a twist to how most approach spring fashion. Included in the collection are a series of denim shorts, hooded sweatshirts with matching pants, headwear, buttoned-up short sleeve shirts and some outerwear pieces. While the drop is diverse enough to ensure there is something to fit everyone’s style needs the standouts in this collection are very clear.

The Ripstop Pullover and accompanying Track Pants are made of water resistant nylon with the Nike logo on the waist and on the back. These sets are available in three color ways including a cream, black with white stitching and a purple pink with a eye catching gradient effect. Some other items that are sure to be in high demand include the denim puffer vest with branding on the left collar and back. As for accessories we get some sleek bucket hats that will add point of difference to any streetstyle look.
The SUPREME x Nike spring collection will be available starting April 18.

On Tuesday, April 2, legendary skater turned actor Harold Hunter would’ve turned 50-years-old. Although he’s not here to celebrate such a milestone with us, famed photographer Jonathan Mannion is ensuring his legacy continues on.

According to Hypebeast, Mannion took to the streets of New York City to plaster the likeness of Hunter throughout Downtown Manhattan using never-before-seen photos he took with Hunter during their skate sessions back in 1997. While many of today’s youth may be unfamiliar with the Kids actor (classic film), Mannion included a QR code that would inform onlookers of his legacy and how he utilized skateboarding to positively impact his community.
For better or worse you have to appreciate technology these days.
Per Hypebeast:

Outside his celebrated history with Zoo York, Hunter was cherished for his exuberant and welcoming personality that transcended the world of skateboarding, leading to a number of modeling and acting roles during the ’90s, including campaigns with Tommy Hilfiger and Larry Clark’s seminal film, Kids(1995). “Harold’s skateboard was just a vehicle,” said actor Rosario Dawson, who grew up in the same neighborhood as the skater, in a past interview. “He became famous for his personality and his spirit. If anybody came to New York, he would take them in and show them the city.” Hunter was tragically found dead in the Manhattan housing project he grew up in on February 17, 2006, from a heart attack. He was 31.
“It is for all of these insights gained that day about Harold’s spirit that I have chosen to hold him as high as possible on what would have been his 50th Birthday, in order to begin to share deeper layers of his humanity,” said Mannion in a release regarding the partnership. “Crying tears from infectious laughter, calmer introspective moments, pure connection with community as he interacted with anyone who he encountered… they don’t make them like Harold anymore,” Mannion added.
Here’s to hoping that Mannion’s tribute to Hunter inspires a few souls to follow suit one way or another. According to Mannion, the Harold Hunter Foundation helped make his tribute possible.
