      It's the "Inverse Luxury Rule". REAL wealthy people are not going around with GUCCI plastered all over them like a NASCAR car. There was an internal study by General Motors decades ago that showed that BUICK, Not CADILLAC, had G.M.s wealthiest buyers. The Cadillac buyers paid more for their cars, but were often the "new rich" but had LESS overall wealth. England's King Edward VIII had a BUICK! (When he was JUST a prince, he did not believe anyone in Britain could build a car the way he wanted it built, but only as they thought he wanted it built.") NOT MAKING THAT UP. "Money" talks. Wealth whispers. The richest guy in your city is probably the guy with a Toyota Avalon, NOT the Mercedes!

    Odd Future blew this brand up in the 2010's and it moved away from a Skate brand to Hype Beast shit.

    • @yafada
      @yafada 4 года назад +21

      Supreme seems to be the brand that survived out of those because of scarcity. All drops are still somewhat limited, compared to how mass produced Neff, Diamond Supply, Obey, The Hundreds, etc are.
      2020 and Supreme bogos still resell for quite a bit. Less than before because they upped the production, but still more than 3x retail. Most of the other products end up being lunch money at best.
      I think they will still remain this way for a while because they don't really overproduce their products. That scarcity remains.

    My brother has a shirt that says
    “Uncool” with a Supreme font and red rectangle. It looks cooler than an actual Supreme shirt in my opinion. I don’t get buying shit for the brand name. I hate clothes that have logos on it.

    • @dasanidaniel
      @dasanidaniel 4 года назад

      The bubble has already begun to deflate, as of last year things have been going downhill. Less and less items sell out with every release, resale prices have generally dropped, and only their original "heirloom" peices have really maintained their value. In the last month, they have lost nearly 20,000 Instagram followers, as time goes on that will continue to decrease.
      The reason for this is likely due to the fact that "streetwear" (the sub genre of fashion that supreme fits in, home to many other brands such as BAPE), although once extremely popular, is beginning to die down at a significant rate. The market itself is slowly shifting towards a new hybrid sub genre, a mix between "high fashion" and what people previously considered "streetwear", as I guess streetwear itself had become a "beating the dead horse" type situation. Brands such as "OFF-WHITE" are ones that fit perfectly into this new unnamed hybrid genre, and in my opinion will have much more longevity in comparison to Supreme and their artificial hype train. Other brands that would fit well into this genre would be "VETEMENTS", ""Midnight Studios", "Chrome Hearts", "Siberia Hills", "Alyx" etc. They all feature "street wear-esque" aesthetics, but run a "high fashion" business model, as I hardly see any new and successful clothing brands refer to themselves as "streetwear" (word itself has become cringe at this point).

    Great video. I grew up a skateboarder in and around NYC in the 90s and early 2000s and Supreme has to me as far back as I can remember been for trust funder wannabes who tried and failed at skating and thought they could get the coolness and underground subculture credibility associated with it without having to do anything other than spend their parents' money. Their current success was built largely on successfully triangulating to this audience. People outside the skate world don't realize, poser skaters are a HUGE market - just look at how long Nike fought to get legitimacy within skateboarding and how many random people you see wearing Thrasher Magazine shirts.

      Jonathan Böcker $50 shirts make sense depending on what kind of person you are. There is nothing wrong with not spending more than $50 on something like a basic t-shirt. But there is also people who wouldn’t mind spending that amount for something they’ll often wear, making it more worth it to them especially if they by less clothes than the typical person.

    I’ve followed Supreme since 2014. I started buying it in 2016. I only have kept a few items that I really liked but I have always seen it as a side hustle. If someone is willing to pay a crazy price for something that I can get for way less, I will take that profit every time. What’s interesting is that most of the items in a season are not very lucrative in the short term. Certain items are like stocks. They appreciate over time. It’s up to me to decide what items to go for, how long to hold them, etc. That’s not even mentioning how difficult it is to even purchase these items. This was touched on in the video a bit but I was surprised not to see a segment on botting. It has plagued the brand for years but it seems to only be getting worse. Bots are what they sound like. They are programs on your computer that do all of the work for you and check out insanely fast. As a real person repeatedly refreshing the site at drop time on Thursday morning, I am at a significant disadvantage. I often have to avoid certain items because it is literally physically impossible for me to check out. Over the past few years, I’ve made about $5000 selling Supreme items. It’s a somewhat easy hustle as long as you do the research and understand what you are capable of. Hope that helps anyone who was curious 👌

What makes it difficult for manual users is that the site will be laggy upon drop time and there are no cart holds. So if you're lucky to add it to cart, it take about a minute for you to even load up the page for your cart anyway. But by then bots buy it all in the time it took for you to load the home page.
