The Best Jackets Revealed in Supreme’s FW24 Outerwear Collection

Casual streetwear heads will always recognise Supreme for its box logo tees & sweats and while the infamous design might pay the bills, it is Supreme’s proficiency in the jacket game that sets itself apart from copycat brands and this Fall Winter 24 season, “heavy” doesn’t even begin to describe the outerwear that Supreme has lined up for the coming months.
</br>
In no particular order, we’ve picked some of our favourite outerwear styles from Supreme’s FW 2024 collection:
</br>
All-over print jackets have become a subtle constant of Supreme’s seasonal outerwear offerings, with SS17’s Cowboy Work Jacket acting as a grail for many of the brand’s collectors. This season, as part of Supreme’s enlistment of Frank Frazetta, the NYC skate brand has transposed works from Frazetta’s archive onto this shearling lined trucker jacket.
Known for being the “godfather of fantasy art”, Frazetta’s realistic depiction of imaginary warriors and mythical beasts set against a watercolour background has garnered a solid response from fans so far and even better, the starring jacket can be paired with matching jeans.

Another artist who’s been given free rein over Supreme’s catalogue is Mr. Cartoon, an icon of L.A street culture who also appeared in Supreme’s Pressure Washer campaign video and even designed a logo tee for the brand back in 2002. Known for his fine line style, Cartoon’s formative years as a mural graffiti artist come to life on the embroidered leather bomber jacket.
Available in black and red, the jacket has been intricately formed with stitched and embossed techniques to form an anniversary “1994” emblem across the torso and sleeves, with “Supreme” and “World Famous” slogans at the rear.

Supreme’s relationship with Vanson leathers is stronger than the average modern marriage, staying faithful thanks to flamboyant, purpose-built racing jackets and opposed to the duo’s previous, stunt-worthy exploits, this season sees Supreme present its signature, hooded work jacket to be reimagined with classic Vanson design.
Dropping in black and red leather, the jacket is also presented in brown suede, with each iteration sporting embroidered badges at the arms, complete with an exaggerated zip toggle.
The Pinstripe Track Top might not be the flashiest item from Supreme’s FW 2024 collection but it acts a symbol of what the brand has grown to stand for.
</br>
The tracksuit is a staple of any modern streetwear brand, with the current climate dictating a proclivity towards replicating the badges of well-known sports teams and while Supreme is not innocent in that regard, this season’s striped variation focuses on the laid-back application of the humble tracksuit.
Mixing two things that should never meet has become Supreme’s M.O and taking what is usually a common pattern for suiting and remixing it onto a tracksuit that’s embellished with a fancy script logo works seamlessly and is made a touch more functional with the presence of reflective paint on the stripes and a stowable hood.

In a similar vein to Vanson Leathers, Supreme regularly links up with Schott NYC, the Big Apple-born jacketeers that have been handcrafting leather jackets for over 100 years. This season brings about three styles of leather jacket from Schott - the Chevron Down, Racer and A2 Bomber.
A garment with history, Schott’s A2 bomber was the official jacket of the USA’s Air Corps throughout World War II and akin to how pilots would return home with graphics painted across their personalised A2s, Supreme is taking the opportunity to implement some of the artwork obtained through its collaboration with Snow White to display a kitschy depiction of the Disney princess alongside her seven dwarfs, hand-painted by Nicholas Gamarello.
