Supreme's tapping into some serious rock history this season with a Melvins collaboration that honestly makes a lot of sense when you think about it. For those who might not be familiar, Melvins aren't just another band getting the Supreme treatment - they're basically the architects of the sludgy, heavy sound that became Seattle grunge. Formed in 1983 by Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover (who've been holding it down since '84), they influenced everyone from Mudhoney to Soundgarden to Nirvana. Krist Novoselic put it plainly: "Every Seattle band of the late '80s owes a little something to the Melvins." Despite that massive influence, they've stayed cult favorites rather than going mainstream, which probably makes this collab even more fitting.
The collection itself keeps it straightforward with wearable pieces that should appeal to both Melvins heads and Supreme collectors. You're looking at:
- BDU Jacket
- Short Sleeve Polo
- Hooded Sweatshirt
- Two T-Shirts
- 6-Panel hat
- Pillow
Everything drops May 9th in the US and EU, with Asia following on May 11th. No pricing details yet, but expect standard Supreme seasonal rates.
