meh…

The first line of tees from this season can be summed up with a “meh”.  Nothing really spectacular except the “JFK” tee.  The tee has the iconic picture of JFK and his breezy before his assassination; an obvious commentary on the parallel between Democratic nominee Barack Obama, and a former champion of change.

I don’t even know if I want to wear this tee.  It obviousy has an idea that I share and would like to convey, but I really don’t want to get lumped in with the number of hypebeasts who are more in love with the little box logo then they are with the message.  I’ll decide when I stop by Supreme on Monday (Thursday releases are for fags, they hook the homie up on Monday if you aren’t a total herb).

The other tees are really lackluster.  Mad Max is a cool concept but the execution is pretty weak.  Not worth the $32 (price increase, FUCK!).  The Boar’s Head “only the strong” is nice because I love that fuckin’ deli, but again not worth the price of admission.  I would rep the Monaco and Supreme Smash tee, but need to find the right color.  And then there is the Bronson and Chaos tee that I am just not feeling.  Charles Bronson was a pretty good hardcore band, and this Supreme flip is just corny.  So is the Chaos bullshit.  There’s also a “Black President” tee that uses the same font that was used for an old “Dead Presidents” tee (same as the movie). 

All in all a lackluster Supreme tee line, luckily they have that bomb ass outerwear to save face.  We’ll see if the next drop of tees will be any better.
