Supreme For The Grown ‘N Sexy
Sunday, March 16, 2008 | Author: Jon LedfordRounding out the last bit of Supreme posts for at least a little while here on The Evil Collector, are some of the cut ‘n sew shirts from the spring season. A few years ago, the only Supreme gear really flying off shelves was tees and anything with a box logo. Nowadays, it seems that even some of the hotter cut ‘n sew items can move just as quickly. While I’m psyched to see this culture slowly expand on the jeans and a tee shirt mentality, it’s also making it that much harder to score some of the gear I’m after myself!

The large check plaid shirt offers up some classic styling and has already sold completely out of the online shop. In store stock here in America is already running thin, and may be sold out as well. That navy piece is stunning as it’s just blue collar enough to be casual but not to the point of making you look like a farm hand.

These short sleeve oxfords might be my favorite shirt from this season. They have yet to release and will likely appear closer to summer when a light weight shirt like this would be more necessary.

Maybe it’s because of the abundance of flannel from other companies over this past winter, but none of these light flannel shirts are really grabbing me. There’s no doubt that the quality is there, but stylistically these just feel a bit bland.

These polo shirts on the other hand are a knock out! Simple black and greys, a navy piece that once again hearkens back to the early 90’s, and a clean Gucci/Heineken/Italy/Mexico/take your pick colorway. A simple star embroidery on the chest adds just a little bit of flavor.

This striped shirt seems perfect for those Williamsburg hipsters. With strong colors and a very 80’s design scheme, how long before we see this on the backs of the dudes in Vampire Weekend or some other Pitchfork approved blog rock band? As cynical as I may sound, this is yet another strong shirt that should carry over for more than a season or two like so much other cut ‘n sew work we see these days.
