Turn Back Thursday: Kanye Wearing Supreme

September 10, 2009 | Category: Turn Back Thursday | Author: John

Here’s a photo of Kanye West from 2003, during his “Backpacker”  rap days, wearing a brown Supreme fleece-hoody. As artists gain an immense amount of star power, they’re usually aligned with a stylist who introduces them to fashion brands that are “trendy” and “hip”. We’ve all seen brand loyalists jump ship because a certain celebrity was seen wearing their favorite “underground” brand, making that specific brand officially mainstream. With this 2003 photo, it proves Kanye was familiar with the New York-based skate brand prior to becoming the huge artist he is today.
