Whether you are a fashion enthusiast or not, it is not difficult to notice when a new brand or style is on the rise. You may see trendy fashionistas sporting the latest jeans out on the street, be bombarded with online advertisements for the next best designer sunglasses on the market, or notice your classmates crowding around a Supreme hats for sale display in a mall storefront. Regardless of how it is you have noticed, there is no doubt that you have noticed: Supreme backpacks, baseball caps, and t-shirts are the here and now. Interestingly enough, Supreme is not just a typical designer label. Here are three facts on Supreme’s success and rise to fame.
Supreme is 22 years old. Yep, the brand has been around for about as long as the people who enjoy it. It was the brainchild of fashion designer James Jebbia, and rose slowly in the world’s fashion ranks over those two decades, but only received legendary global status from Vogue last year.
The multi million dollar brand began with $12,000. Jebbia, who was working in a skate shop in the early 1990s and founding Supreme at the same time, used only $12,000 to launch the brand. Its worth grew astronomically as its popularity skyrocketed.
Supreme hats for sale can cost between $60 and $100. If you think that is a lot for a hat, you may be surprised at young people’s motives to buy Supreme clothing: according to Vogue, the average Supreme customer (who is typically aged 18 to 25) spends this kind of money on the brand because they “simply want to buy cool stuff.”
The best deals on Supreme clothing and Supreme hats for sale can be found online. In fact, lower rates in price are the number one reason people choose to shop online, followed by cost of shipping and discount offers. However, there is one big downside to purchasing designer material from online marketplaces: copycat merchandise. In copycat merchandise, the real designer item and the fake one can look nearly identical, with the fake one likely being made of cheaper or less quality material. These designer knockoffs usually come from foreign posers looking to make the same amount of money as the designers are.
Whether you agree with Supreme’s costs and merchandise or not, it is obvious that this brand has experienced massive amounts of success in the consumer world, acting among young people as a social statement and a blatant display of financial standing.
