Streetwear nowadays is all about collaboration and Supreme continues its 2016 spring/summer projects with a focus on reggae history from 1979. The collection pays homage to the 1979 emergence of dancehall reggae and features iconic imagery and references to the partnership that brought upon albums such as ‘Bounty Hunter,’ ‘Englishman’ and ‘Robin Hood’ — stepping stones that would lead to Levy’s path to superstardom and form what is now known as the dancehall reggae sound. Further, work between him and Jah Life would eventually produce “Murderer” and forego the stereotype that great reggae had to come from Jamaica.
We see an impressive lineup of t-shirts, tank tops and a pullover hoodie in a bevy of colors featuring the partnership’s original artwork. Look for the release to hit Supreme New York, Los Angeles, London, Paris and online on June 16, while Japan will see its release June 18.
