NYC’s Supreme has perfected the art of bringing cult classic films from the past into their apparel line. For the Spring/Summer 2019 collection, the Supreme King of New York T-Shirt Red takes on imagery from the 1990 film featuring Christopher Walken, King of New York. In the film, which also features Laurence Fishburne, Wesley Snipes, and David Caruso, Walken plays Frank White, a drug lord who is fresh out of prison and re-establishing himself as King of NY. For the Supreme King of New York t-shirt, the poster from the film’s original release is used and then modified with a scripted Supreme and Christopher Walken’s signature, surrounding the ‘King of New York’ title.
As Supreme is the unofficial king of New York when it comes to skateboarding and streetwear, it should come as no surprise that the Supreme King of New York T-Shirt Red sold out instantly when it released on February 21, 2019. If you were lucky enough to grab one and want to sell it, place an Ask on the StockX marketplace and we will let potential buyers you are ready to let it go. If you missed out and want to add this Supreme shirt to your collection, it is available in sizes small, medium, large, and extra large now on StockX.
