Air Max 98 Supreme

Released during the Spring/Summer 2016 season to very little hype, Supremeā€™s Air Max 98 has steadily grown in interest (and price) in the time since. While a retail price of $175 may have scared aware some buyers on the initial drop, that price would be a bargain today, as itā€™s not uncommon to see pairs trading for double the original retail price (or even more). The snakeskin colorway has seen the largest increase in price, but all four colorways are clean, durable, and will make a great addition to your rotation.

 

Air Foamposite One Supreme

Perhaps the most infamous drop in Supremeā€™s history, the brandā€™s collaborative Air Foamposite One caused quite the scene on Lafayette St when it dropped in April of 2014. While the NYC in-store release was cancelled the night before, the online release still happened, and prices are still around 4x the retail price of $250 (at the time of this writing). While the Foamposite may not be the desirable silhouette it once was, these shoes are more than that, standing as an artifact of Supremeā€™s storied history.

Vans Era Supreme Motion Logo

Many say that Supremeā€™s recent Vans releases have been a bit lackluster compared to seasons past. While that may or may not be true, itā€™s pretty obvious why the Motion Logo Vans from 2016 are still so desirable. Featuring one of Supremeā€™s most iconic logo iterations printed around the heel on the classic Era model, itā€™s tough to see these Vans ever going out of style.

 

Jordan 5 Retro Supreme

While the Jordan 14 that released during the SS19 season left much to be desired, Supreme Jordan 5 from FW15 was an instant classic. Releasing alongside an equally desirable apparel collection, the three colorways of this classic Jordan silhouette sold out instantly and are still trading for well above retail today. You simply cannot go wrong wearing this shoe.

 

Air Force 1 Mid Supreme NBA

Supremeā€™s Nike/NBA collaboration from SS18 brought a lot of heat. Varsity jackets, jerseys, shorts, and shooting sleeves highlighted the apparel. The most desirable piece from the collection though was the Air Force 1 Mid, which features an all-over print of a variety of NBA team logos, in black and white colorways. While the AF1 Mid isnā€™t a traditionally popular model, Supreme did what they do best – take something average and make it great.

 

Nike Dunk SB Low Supreme Red Cement (2012)

Dunks have seen a massive resurgence as of late. Whether itā€™s new models from Diamond, Staple, or Concepts, the era of Dunks may be back and better than ever. Long before the recent Dunk hype, Supreme did a duo of dunks in 2002, and then released this absolute smash hit ten years later in 2012 – the famous red cement colorway. If you wear these, youā€™re sure to get head turns and compliments from even the most picky sneakerheads.

 

Louis Vuitton Sport Supreme White Monogram

Though they never officially dropped through Supreme, the brandā€™s collaborative footwear with Louis Vuitton shouldnā€™t be ignored. The shoes were a part of the massive collection between the two brands that dropped back in June of 2017. The models include the Run Away, Sport, and even a set of Hugh Slippers if youā€™re looking for something a little more casual. With retail prices ranging from $825 to $905, some sizes and colors are actually selling below retail on StockX at the time of this writing.

 

Air Force 1 Low Supreme x Comme des Garcons (2018)

Nike has been letting a lot of their collaborators go beyond what one might think the brand guidelines for their swoosh logo allow. Virgil Abloh stitched over it, Travis Scott flipped it, and with this Air Force 1 Supreme just cut it straight down the middle. A new take on a classic model, Supremeā€™s latest CDG AF1 follows the ā€œEyesā€ version from 2017 and provides a reasonably priced alternative to some of the recently hyped sneaker drops.

 

Timberland 6″ Boot Supreme Stars & Stripes Wheat

Feeling patriotic? Whether youā€™re hitting a 4th of July party or simply looking to pay homage to Juelz Santana circa 2003, these Timbs are right up your alley. Only Supreme can take a wheat 6 inch Timberland boot and cover it in an all-over American flag print. Did I mention itā€™s average sale price is below the original retail price of $248? Time to hit that bid button.

 

Vans Sk8-Hi/Authentic Supreme Checker

Very few Supreme sneakers have seen the same level of interest as the six different checkered Vans (3 Authentics & 3 Sk8-His). Coming in three different colors – black, blue, and red – all three colors have seen massive value on the secondary market with sales well over twice retail. While some recent Vans collaborations have been called lackluster, maybe the move is to pony up and grab these before the prices continue to climb.
