Supreme makes and promotes Supreme Hats, which are baseball type caps intended for today's young people that happen to be part of the cities street scene, called "street couture". They started selling these unique and classy hats and also other street gear to skaters and artists 18 years ago inside their first store on Lafayette Avenue in downtown Manhattan. At this time they have added seven more Supreme outlets which are located in Los Angeles on North Fairfax Avenue inside West Hollywood as well as on Peter Street present in London's Soho district, as well as two in Tokyo and one each inside Osaka, Fukuoka and Nagoya, Japan.
Although the company is reluctant to admit it, they just don't easily supply original items to several other merchants since the products are manufactured in deliberately limited quantities to preserve the exclusivity of the brand name. Due to this marketing tool, there's a huge secondary market for Supreme Hats along with other articles of clothing, most of which can be found on sites like Ebay. Supreme originals are offered in a small number of stores other than their own, but could be found at Colette in Paris around the rue St. Honore' and at Hide Out around London's Soho District. In Canada, original Supreme Hats and clothing can be acquired at NOMAD, a menswear retail outlet on Queen Street West in Toronto.
Styles of Hats
Supreme Hats are hugely popular, particularly the five-panel hats with the large letters SUPREME across the front. These five-panel caps at present are available in twenty-three various designs and colors which includes some with beveled logos.
Many of the Supreme Hats have snap back closures for better fit. The baseball caps, known as New Era, are wool, employ a large zebra-striped "S" over the front side and are also available in royal blue, navy, black, brown and red. The camp caps are usually cotton twill with "Supreme" across the front, zebra printed side panels and are available in the colors acid green, red, royal blue, as well as purple.
For original styles not shown online or seen in their stores, like the Supreme Houndstooth Five Panel hat, a client would need to visit a site like Ebay and most likely shell out about $80 for it.
Apart from baseball type caps, the company also makes Supreme Fitted Hats which are named Beanies. Justin Bieber was photographed recently sporting one of these.
A few of these knitted hats have the Supreme box logo over the front cuff and several have a plain cuff but a sizable "S" on the front of the hat. All have pom poms at the top. The simple and common "beanies" have zero decoration or pom pom but simply a little side tab with "Supreme" printed on it.
The beanies can be purchased in the colors of olive drab, mauve, navy, heather grey, red, steel, black, orange, rust orange, green, pink, tan, yellow as well as burgundy.
