Supreme X Nike AF1

The Nike Air Force 1 first released in 1982 has often been described as the greater and most influential sneaker of all time. Named after the U.S Presidential plane, the Nike Air Force 1 was the first basketball shoe to contain Nike Air technology in the sole.
One kid at a time, one community at a time, the Nike AF1 went worldwide, with infinite interactions, collaborations and customizations that helped define an entire culture of enthusiasts. 30 years on, the Nike AF1 remains the pinnacle of street, sport and culture.
Supreme has joined Nike to release a new version of the Air Force 1. Made exclusively for Supreme, the sneaker features authentic NYCO fabric that is traditionally used to produce military outerwear. NYCO fabric is highly durable and water resistant.

Supreme X Stax Records

Stax Records is an American record label, originally based in Memphis, Tennessee.
Stax Records is synonymous with Southern soul music. Originally known as Satellite, the Memphis company was founded in 1959 by Jim Stewart and his sister, Estelle Axton. Among the many artists who scored hits on Stax and and its Volt subsidiary during the Sixties were Rufus and Carla Thomas, Booker T. & the MGs, Sam and Dave, Johnnie Taylor, Albert King, and Otis Redding. Redding's death in 1967 signaled the end of the first Stax era. Subsequently the company spawned a new crop of hit-makers, among them Isaac Hayes, the Staple Singers, and the Dramatics.
Supreme has teamed up with Stax Records for a group of three original T-Shirts featuring Otis Redding, Isaac Hayes and the classic Stax Records logo. This group will be offered along with two other T-shirts for the Fall delivery.

Solitude

I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will. Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellows. The really diligent student in one of the crowded hives of Cambridge College is as solitary as a dervish in the desert. The farmer can work alone in the field or the woods all day, hoeing or chopping, and not feel lonesome, because he is employed; but when he comes home at night he cannot sit down in a room alone, at the mercy of his thoughts, but must be where he can "see the folks," and recreate, and, as he thinks, remunerate himself for his day's solitude; and hence he wonders how the student can sit alone in the house all night and most of the day without ennui and "the blues"; but he does not realize that the student, thought in the house, is still at work in his field, and chopping in his woods, as the farmer in his, and in turn seeks the same recreation and society that the latter does, though it may be a more condensed form of it.
Society is commonly too cheap. We meet at very short intervals, not having had time to acquire any new value for each other. We meet at meals three times a day, and give each other a new taste of that old musty cheese that we are. We have had  to agree on a certain set of rules, called etiquette and politeness, to make this frequent meeting tolerable and that we need not come to open war. We meet at the post-office, and at the sociable, and about the fireside every night; we live thick and are in each other's way, and stumble over one another, and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another. Certainly less frequently would suffice for all important and hearty communications. Consider the girls in a factory - never alone, hardly in their dreams. It would be better if there were but one inhabitant to a square mile, as where I live. The value of a man is not in his skin, that we should touch him.
- Henry David Thoreau, Walden 中
