I think it was only the other week when i joked that people would queue round the block for a chance to own something as ridiculous as KAWS farts in a jar (here) and that was in a piece praising the Kaws Lightbulb collaboration with The Standard Hotel, but it seems that Kaws would prefer to veer closer to my bottled nightmare with this new partnership with Supreme.

Not spotted the Kaws element to these garments/skatedecks? no me neither because apparently all Kaws has done is hand draw the Supreme box logo. This would make sense if it was done in the sketched style we've seen develop in the work that he's done for his own Original Fake clothing line and for clients like Colette but it doesn't even match that so I really fail to see what the point of calling it a Supreme x Kaws collaboration is really.

No doubt it will also be accompanied by some crappy flash photography from Terry Richardson too that will make me die a little inside. Even moreso if they put that on a tee too. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this will be slated for a April 1st release and its all a joke. Failing that i'll just keep my fingers crossed that its just slated!
