Supreme Launch System to Combat Bots

New York streetwear stalwart Supreme launches a new online system that bans users of its website that consistently use bots to secure limited releases. According to a tweet sent by @TheSupremeSaint, the brand is now banning the IP addresses of those based upon “how frequent you Poll Supreme’s website via refresher or bot.” It is hoped the new system, much like Nike’s highly-touted raffle process, will reward loyal fans of the cult imprint who have previously missed out on high-profile drops. As with all Supreme news, the official line on this is hard to come by, but it’s worth keeping an eye on their website for releases that should now be somewhat easier to get hold of.
