Every so often, Supreme teams up with relevant artists to create select capsules of products revolving around skate decks. As a brand rooted heavily in the skating, the deck has provided a formidable canvas for past artists such as Larry Clark, Jeff Koons, Richard Prince and Takashi Murakami to work their magic and creativity. The latest installment is a collaboration with artist Sean Cliver who is the author of the book, Disposable, which showcases over 1000 skateboard graphics from the past 30 years. In addition to the skate decks, t-shirts with the same graphic as the skate decks will be available.
