Supreme is teaming up with SOUTH2 WEST8, a Hokkaido-based fishing gear brand that's been doing their thing since 2003. For those unfamiliar, SOUTH2 WEST8 isn't your average outdoors brand - they're deeply rooted in Tenkara fly fishing, a traditional Japanese method that translates to "from heaven" and uses minimal equipment with classic Japanese hair burrs. The brand manages to blend that heritage with a modern, bold aesthetic that sets them apart from typical fishing gear.
The Spring 2021 collab brings that technical outdoor energy to Supreme's lineup with a solid range of pieces:
- River Trek Jacket and Pant
- Bush Parka, Vest, and Pant
- Fleece Jacket
- Belted Pant
- L/S T-Shirt
- Mesh Game Bag
- Jungle Hat, Bush Balaclava, and Bush Tulip Hat
- Tenkara Fishing Rod
Everything drops April 22nd in the US and EU, with Japan following on April 24th. It's a nice departure from the usual collabs, bringing some legitimate outdoor functionality into the mix.
