That being said, Supreme is gearing up to release a brand new collaboration with Nike which will feature their take on the classic Air Max 1 silhouette which they’ve remixed for the first time in their long history of partnering with the Swoosh brand. Per Supreme, the new collabo is set to release this Thursday (March 20) and will feature four distinct colorways–white, black, yellow and purple—that are sure to catch eyes and snap necks out in the wild.
With the way that sneakerheads and hype beasts have been literally fighting out on the streets trying to get their hands on the latest sneaker drop we wouldn’t be surprised if these sellout instantly when they drop later this week. These Supreme x Air Max 1 feature all leather uppers, a Swoosh with debossed snakeskin detailing and Supreme branding on the tongue and heel.
That being said, the Air Max 1 hasn’t exactly been the most popular silhouette over the past few years amongst sneaker enthusiasts, but can that change simply by adding that Supreme logo to the tongue with a bright and vibrant colorway? Guess we’ll find out come March 20th.
Check out the Supreme x Air Max 1 kicks and let us know if you’ll be putting down $170 for a pair in the comments section below.

Years ago, a man by the name of YM Bape (Anthony Lopez) made a name for himself on social media for bullying anyone on the street simply for wearing Supreme attire (the man was a huge fan of A Bathing Ape) until he tested the wrong one and ended up catching a universal.
Fast forward to 2025, and the man who became infamous for his bullish ways and banging on his chest is now set to serve a lengthy prison sentence on a completely unrelated matter. According to Complex, YM Bape has just been sentenced to a 25 to life prison bid for his role in a murder-for-hire conspiracy in New York City. This past Thursday (March 13), a jury convicted Lopez of “murder, conspiracy, criminal solicitation, and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon on Dec. 13, 2024.”
From the videos of him bullying random Supreme hypebeasts on the streets, we figured the man was a little off in the head, allegedly. But we didn’t think he’d go so far as to murder someone. As it turns out, the murder was payback for an attempted murder on his own life, but Lopez ended up taking the life of an innocent man.
Per Complex:
Prosecutors say that after Lopez was shot three times on April 18, 2019, on New York City’s Lower East Side, he sought to exact revenge on a neighborhood gang rival who he believed was responsible. According to prosecutors, Lopez developed a plan “to hire someone to murder the rival in a retaliatory shooting.” Per a release from the Manhattan district attorney’s office, Malik Facey offered on June 22, 2019, to carry out the murder for Lopez for between $1,000 and $2,000.
Prosecutors say that on July 12, 2019, Lopez and his associates met on the Lower East Side to plan the murder of their rival. Early the next day, Facey met with others involved in the plot at 20 Avenue D; at approximately 2:40 am there, Facey fired shots towards 35-year-old James Weeks, an innocent bystander. Weeks, rather than the rival Lopez had allegedly conspired to kill, was shot dead.
In court on Thursday, Weeks’ brother gave a victim impact statement, saying that Lopez felt no remorse for setting up the fatal shooting. The brother held up print-outs from Lopez’s Instagram that showed him smiling from his cell on Riker’s Island. The prosecution read an impact statement from Weeks’ wife, Jessica Santos, who said she and their children had suffered through years of trauma in the wake of her husband’s murder.
Though Lopez did not accept responsibility for the shooting, he did say he was “sorry for what happened.” The judge was having none of it and pointed out his that behavior on social media after the shooting and during the court proceedings was less than stellar.
At the sentencing, Judge Robert Mandelbaum underscored a contrasting image, describing video footage taken shortly after the killing that showed Lopez and his friends “yukking it up” and “happy as clams” despite having murdered an innocent bystander. Judge Mandelbaum noted how Lopez’s in-court behavior during the course of the trial was at-times unruly; at one point, the judge said, Lopez punched through a window at the courthouse, smashing a barrier of reinforced glass.
Play stupid games…ya know the rest.

It seems SUPREME is looking to close out 2024 strong. They have announced a collaboration with Dickies, and it has all the workwear vibes you never knew you needed.

On Tuesday (Dec. 3), the New York-based label announced a forthcoming drop with Dickies. Curated for the fall 2024 season, this collection merges the aesthetic from both brands together seamlessly. While the spirit of this drop aligns with Dickies’ pursuit of outfitting those who are committed to making their mark, all the pieces can easily be styled for streetwear purposes. Included in the capsule are several workwear staples, including cargo pants, polos, long-sleeve jersey t-shirts and more.
As expected, this SUPREME collaboration has some standout pieces that are sure to be in high demand. Dickies’ signature outerwear item gets a very plush update via the Hooded Leather Work Jacket. This version features an all leather shell and a heavyweight insulated quilted polyester lining. We also get a flannel lined overall with a snap button closure on the pant. Additionally, this item stays true to the original with a utility loop, large bib pocket on the chest and a boot cut leg seam.
The SUPREME x Dickies collaboration will be available in the United States starting Dec. 6. and Asia starting Dec. 7.

SUPREME is taking their newest collaboration to the jungle. The streetwear label is releasing animal print Timberland Field Boots.

The New York City based brand is taking the iconic shoe and giving it a very interesting remix. On Wednesday, Nov. 13 SUPREME announced they are dropping three versions of the three quarter feet pieces. Included in the collection is a zebra striped color way with black and white contrasting. It is complimented with black laces, black padded leather collar and black rubber outsole. We also get an even bolder option with a tiger inspired option with a bright orange and black color way. Both feature hair-on-hide upper paneling. To make the cypher complete there is a triple black offering that gives all the winter Black Air Force 1 energy you can handle.
This is not the first time SUPREME has worked with Timberland. Back in 2006 the two brands collaborated on their first drop which was also the Field Boot. Since then they have released several co-branded efforts including hats, accessories, hooded sweatshirts and even remixed their iconic 6-Inch Waterproof Boot. The animal print SUPREME x Timberland Field Boots are available now and can be shopped here.

For the past few years the Supreme x Air Force 1 Low‘s have been a hot commodity in the sneaker world as they tend to sell out as soon as they restock on the streetwear brand’s website. But will their new Mid’s experience the same amount of hype as the Low’s?
Source: Supreme / Supreme
On Thursday (August 20), Supreme will be dropping their new Air Force 1 Mid’s in both the all-black and all-white color ways with the box logo on the heels. Though Air Force 1 Mid’s haven’t been thee most popular Nike silhouette in, well, decades probably, adding that little Supreme logo on the side may actually be enough to move some merchandise as hype beasts tend to flock to damn near anything that the legendary street brand releases out in these streets.
Per Supreme, the shoe is outfitted with a “full-grain leather upper with perforated leather toe panel, DURAPLUSH lining, co-branded footbed, lace lock, tongue label, embroidered logos at eyestay and debossed printed logo at side.”
If you’re hoping to resell these for a profit, we’d advise against copping these as they’re almost sure to brick. These kicks really are for the heads who grew up loving the Air Force 1 Mid’s and were probably clowned by their friends for doing so. Let them rock, b.

One of the culture’s most beloved creatives might be finally working with the world’s most popular streetwear label. A SUPREME x Tyler, The Creator drop might be on the way.
As reported by Highsnobiety, the New York-based company looks to be partnering with the face of GOLF le FLEUR. On Tuesday, Aug. 13, SUPREME posted some photographs of him sporting their signature box logo t-shirt. The “See You Again” MC is pictured wearing a hunting hat with the ear flaps tied up with what seems to be a silk-printed scarf slightly protruding from the collar. “Tyler, The Creator for Supreme, 2024,” the caption read.
While the clothing brand didn’t share any more details, Tyler left a comment saying, “MR. GREEN HAT REALLY,” which is a reference to not only his lyrics on “Session” from Bastard but also his history of wearing green SUPREME hats during his Odd Future days. The following day, posters with the same visuals appeared on the streets of London.
Tyler, The Creator has seemed to thrive in the fashion industry. Back in February it was announced he designed a menswear collection for Louis Vuitton. Prior to that, he and A$AP Rocky were the face of a 2020 Gucci campaign. At this time there is no release date on the Tyler, The Creator x SUPREME drop.

The world’s most popular streetwear label has a new owner. Supreme has been sold once again for $1.5 billion.
High Snobiety is reporting that the New York-based brand has been put up for sale for a second time within the last five years. Back in November 2020, VF Corporation announced they agreed to purchase Supreme in an all-cash deal to the tune of $2.1 billion. VF is a global apparel company that houses several high-profile brands including The North Face, VANS, Timberland, Dickies, Jansport, and more. The two entities enjoyed a longstanding business relationship before the agreement due to several co-branded efforts between Supreme and their brands.
On July 17, VF announced they had entered an agreement with EssilorLuxottica to acquire Supreme for $1.5 billion. The deal has taken the industry by surprise as EssilorLuxottica has historically only played in the eyewear space.
Francesco Milleri, Chairman at EssilorLuxottica expressed his enthusiasm in a formal statement
“We see an incredible opportunity in bringing an iconic brand like Supreme into our Company” he said. “It perfectly aligns with our innovation and development journey, offering us a direct connection to new audiences, languages and creativity. With its unique brand identity, fully-direct commercial approach and customer experience – a model we will work to preserve – Supreme will have its own space within our house brand portfolio and complement our licensed portfolio as well. They will be well-positioned to leverage our Group’s expertise, capabilities, and operating platform.”
Supreme Founder James Jebbia commented, “In EssilorLuxottica, we have a unique partner that understands that we are at our best when we stay true to the brand and continue to operate and grow as we have for the past 30 years. This move lets us focus on the brand, our products, and our customers, while setting us up for long-term success.”

It’s officially hoodie season, so y’all know it’s that time of year when Supreme drops those coveted BOGO pieces that Hypebeasts and resellers live for.
Source: Supreme / Supreme
Highsnobiety is reporting that Christmas is coming early for the heads this year as Supreme’s latest collection will hit the streets December 7 and will feature hoodies, t-shirts and beanies that will showcase that classic box logo that drives heads crazy out on these streets. The simple yet effective logo that’s reigned supreme (no pun intended) for years are always some of the most sought after pieces from Supreme’s annual collections. This year will prove to be no different.
Per Highsnobiety:
At the moment, there’s no official word on the release date or the tees’ colorways. But streetwear enthusiasts have some ideas: anyone up for a camo Box Logo tee?
In the meantime, Supreme will drop off some Box Logo hoodies, including the anticipated camouflage scheme from the collection preview.
As far as other colorways go, fans can expect more tonal options, like black, white, purple, and red. Yes, like a red BOGO on a red hoodie.
Joining the Box Logo hoodies will be New Era Box logo beanies, offered in the same schemes and dropping the same day as the hoodies.
OG New Yorkers will definitely be going for that Camo box logo hoodie. That’s a must. Just sayin’.
You can expect these to be a tough cop come Thursday morning as hypebeasts will be ready come 11 a.m. May the odds ever be in your favor for this year’s Supreme hunger games.
