Supreme‘s collaboration with UNDERCOVER and Public Enemy takes the headline slot for this week’s roundup of releases. The collection’s Fear of a Black Planet album cover art pieces and White House tees will be the main pickups, as well the Dr. Martens shoes, 14K gold necklaces and FOABP rug — but the biggest shoutout perhaps goes to the fact that a portion of proceeds from sales will be donated to the American Civil Liberties Union.
Other upcoming big drops are assisted by big names in the industry, such as A$AP Rocky‘s AWGE x Needles tracksuits, the long-awaited Kim Jones x GU collection and Blondey McCoy‘s Thames x Fred Perry Spring/Summer 2018 lineup. Elsewhere, The North Face and Off-White offer some remixed utility outerwear options, IISE and Soulland present softer, sophisticated takes on classic casual silhouettes, and the Hélas “Numero Uno” drop and Patta x Umbro soccer jerseys provide some prime tongue-in-cheek gear.
