Supreme collaborated with publisher Rizzoli to release a commemorative book that captured the pivotal moments in the independent label’s history, and accompanying it was a limited edition box tee that had a black-and-white logo in front, along with a print of the book cover on the back of the tee.

Supreme’s foray into the European market saw the introduction of its “negative space” concept, where customers had to head downwards to shop its products. The street level was used as a gallery for skate-related paraphernalia, and a Union Jack box logo tee was released to mark the occasion and pay homage to founder James Jebbia’s time in UK. There’s one going for a steal on eBay now.
