Supreme introduces its latest limited edition collection made in collaboration with Martin Wong, a late Chinese-American artist. He is often recognized for his impressive work that highlights social realism fused with visionary art to showcase subject awareness overall.
Wong plays with different props and flyers in order to create "radical queer performance art troupes, The Cockettes and Angels of Light." In his finals day, Wongpainted a series of work that represented his youth experience in Chinatown. The collaborative collection features rayon shirts, a leather varsity jacket with Schott NYC, long sleeve top, tees, a beanie, hoodies, and two skateboards. The entire capsule is now available to shop at global Supreme stores and online.
