here’s the thing, i just see absolutely no benefit to supreme mass producing themselves other than to fulfill corporate greed. like the previous post said, the exclusivity factor is the key driver for supreme in terms of demand from their buyers, and the everlasting want from those who end meeting the sold out screen whenever they log on to their site. and resale prices being double or even triple the retail price.
the greatest example of the downfall everyone is speculating can definitely be seen with Diamond Supply Co. and even Pink Dolphin. both of those brands rode heavy on exclusivity through them only being sold on their 1 flagship location and their online site that constantly sold out. once diamond supply co. inked a deal with both zumiez and pacsun, that was when everyone fell off and it’s value absolutely tanked. and it didn’t take much time for pink dolphin to follow suit. now they’re solidified mall tier and are just too abundant to even be “cool” to wear anymore, even thought they’re designs are still consistent in terms of style.
now if VF bought them out and jebbia left, then i could fully believe supreme is digging their own grave and would need a massive miracle to comeback. i just can’t see him really staying with the company and allowing them to mass market themselves, or maybe i’m just so attached to the point where i don’t want to see them do it
Felt you hurting in these words

Oh s*** is this actually the end of an era? They wouldn't be that f***ing stupid to start sending the clothes to stores right? You'd think that they would just keep the brand value up by limiting demand right?

i’m saying i don’t see the benefit of mass producing themselves. i think they’ve hit a sweet spot that they shouldn’t really try losing
Supreme been dead since kids on Reddit was like "Preme"
The cool part though is anything before this deal gonna be "vintage"
Supreme needs to go do what stussy is doing now. Realize their core audience is older and want good individual pieces that you can wear all the time and not cringy stuff. Yeah stussy is widely available and that might happen to supreme, but their s*** still sells out and they do a lot of great collabs. Supreme just really needs to stop chasing the customer that only want to buy supreme so they can think they’re cool. Those people will only last for so long till the new cool thing comes out. Right now supreme is like that guy you graduated high school with that still hangs out with the underclass kids because they thought he was cool in high school.
People need to realize tho,the mass market doesn’t even want Supreme the clothing brand,they just want the logo,the general public only f***s with the logo. If they start to mass produce everything they make,Supreme is DOA for real,I’m talking the whole company.
But if they start to release bogos in a Jordan’s type way where they announce it a pretty good while beforehand and they make a reasonable amount of them to sell in certain stores in certain areas(let’s say a Barney’s or Maxfield type store,this could still work at a UO type store tho)and it’s only sold for that weekend and it’s pulled from the store. That’s gonna grow the brand even more.
But Supreme mass producing all of their gear is a recipe for disaster. They’ll be overestimating themselves. People want the bogos.
Nah it’s just math
They just gonna drop more bricks
Like instead of a 7 tee shirt drop they gonna do a 12 tee drop
Season just gonna be bigger

Pretty much. Also they already mass produce the bogos. They made like 15k of the long sleeves I'm pretty sure which seems like a lot. And even then they could make it 30k and they'd still sell out right away and be desirable

Top five on your list?
1. CDG split logo bogo in white cause I copped it manual and then sold it cause I needed cash
2. One of their Mohair Cardigans just because they seem like a solid piece to have
3.Jimmy and Misty Hoodie or Jacket just because it was cool piece and I didn’t have the cash for it
4. Piss Christ Hoodie for the same reason as 3
5: Either Cdg waffle knit, or that yohji knit cause those both were really cool to me and I just couldn’t get em
