Supreme Mike Kelley Ringer TeeWhite

Product Description

The Supreme Mike Kelley Ringer Tee in White from Spring Summer 2026 is an all cotton jersey crewneck with original artwork by Mike Kelley printed on the front, applying the late Michigan artist's distinctly layered and chaotic visual legacy to the ringer tee format, a construction whose contrast collar and sleeve banding add a subtle athletic and retro dimension to the classic crewneck tee silhouette that makes it a specifically distinct format within the broader Mike Kelley x Supreme apparel collection. White as the base for the ringer tee allows the Kelley artwork to read against the cleanest and most open background available in the colorway range, giving the printed graphic its maximum visual fidelity and making the dimensional complexity of Kelley's imagery as legible as the format will allow. Mike Kelley, born in 1954 in Detroit and based in Los Angeles until his death in 2012, was one of the most significant American artists of the late twentieth century, known for using stuffed animals, domestic materials, found objects, collage, and assemblage to explore memory, trauma, popular culture, and collective identity in work that influenced nearly every major conceptual and post-punk art movement that followed him. His Memory Ware series, which the simultaneously released Vans Era collaboration drew from most directly, and his broader practice of recontextualizing everyday materials into unsettling and emotionally resonant objects made him a natural collaborator for Supreme's ongoing investment in artist-led graphic releases as the most culturally significant tier of its seasonal collection.

The Supreme x Mike Kelley Spring 2026 collection represents the second time the brand has engaged with Kelley's foundation and visual legacy, spanning a comprehensive thirty-plus-piece range that includes zip-up hooded sweatshirts, sweatpants, tees, banner tees, ringer tees, an S/S shirt, a thermal, camp caps, a Faribault Mills throw blanket made in the USA, a skateboard, and collaborative Vans Era and Half Cab footwear, making it one of the most expansive artist collaboration capsules in Supreme's seasonal history. Supreme described the collaboration as working with Kooks Co. Japan on a collection based on Kelley's original design language, emphasizing that the project was done independently from Takahiro Miyashita's separate Number Nine project that dropped in the same FW25 season. Released in the Week 8 drop on April 16, 2026, the Mike Kelley Ringer Tee White is the most accessible entry point into a collection that rewards deep engagement with both Supreme's artist collaboration history and Kelley's extensive and culturally dense artistic output.

The Supreme Mike Kelley Ringer Tee White was released on April 16, 2026 with a retail price of $110.
