RIP Supreme. Sold to Vans, by WOOF on Nov 10, 2020 3:35:08 GMT 1, โThis scarcity, novelty and strong social influence model supports meaningful pricing power resulting best in class profitability,โ VF Corp Chief Executive Steve Rendle said.
Seems to me they understand exactly why Supreme is a successful brand. Not sure how this is any more of a RIP situation than when Carlyle Group bought in...

RIP Supreme. Sold to Vans, by mikegood on Nov 10, 2020 3:45:51 GMT 1, Agree with WOOF ^^ This is huge for them. Buy VF stock is the question?? I bought into Gap right when Yeezy teamed up a few months ago... Almost doubled my money. Can't imagine this will be any different.
#1. Supreme is supreme bc of limited runs. I don't see that ending.
#2. Did we ever reallllly know how many of each item was released?? lol No.
#3. They're about to sell SO much more stock in malls, etc... Some stuff will be hard to get, but other pieces (like stuff sitting on site right now) will be available to a larger audience and in stores for parents to pick up for their kids, etc..

Supreme is now owned by the same company that owns Wrangler and sells in Walmart.
Wrangler? you sure about that?... I mean, or you could say owned by the company that owns Vans and North Face (two of the largest supreme collabs).
www.vfc.com/brands
Eh, regardless..... Supreme is for hypebeast kids now- not skaters. VFC see the potential or they wouldn't have paid 2.1 BILLION dollars for it. LOL..... I guess we can revisit this thread in a few months and someone can say "I told ya so~" :shrug:

I guess we can revisit this thread in a few months and someone can say "I told ya so~" :shrug: And for point two, I bet this is closer to the tumblr acquisition. They don't know what to do with the brand and will bleed it dry to make back enough money or increase the costs so high it will sit in the stores.
See thats the thing tho... a lot of Supreme DOES sit ... Go look right now, www.supremenewyork.com/shop/all legit can get basically anything you want besides some super rare items..
But now, they'll be able to sell those phone cases in malls across the world and on Amazon? Meanwhile, releasing limited batches online and at select retailers for the hypebeasts willing to fight it out....
Eh, i'm just not sold they're going anywhere. I certainly think VF stock is a good buy right now, but what do I know :shrug:

RIP Supreme. Sold to Vans, by Lord Lucas Roham on Nov 11, 2020 0:04:22 GMT 1, With the exception of the Bogos Supreme is dead. Stuff that used to sell out sits, then when it sells out it's on Ebay for a ยฃ10 markup. Kids and lunch money. Stock has increased massively. The brand is pretty dead in terms of hype but still popular, think Bathing Ape. This acquisition could ruin it or if they follow the Bape model make money while still being semi-hyped.
