Supreme x North Face

I have heard of Supreme before, there always seems to be a queue at the London store, but I never knew what the fuss was all about. Then, a couple of weeks back when on Instagram, there was a post about a launch of a collaboration between Supreme & the North Face. Apparently this is a long running collaboration, but not one I had seen. 

The new collection was a futuristic mix of metallics. Initial impression was more whether I thought I could pull it off or not! But I was really taken by the coat. 

So, on day of release I thought I would pop by the store. Walking past an its restaurant, I saw someone wearing one. They also had about 20 Supreme bags with them! When I did arrive at the store there was a big queue and they were stopping people buying. Sold Out!

Funnily enough, when you check on eBay they were already going for double the price online. I really wanted this coat, but some people just ruin it for others. You could see people in the queue with tonnes of items, it isn't exactly fair, but that is life!

Maybe I will pick this up in 30 years time as a vintage piece, for now I will have to think differently. There is however some more fun stuff on their website to buy in the meantime!
