Editor’s Notes: A new week brings yet another Supreme collaboration. On Thursday (in the US), the streetwear mainstay will be releasing select items from its Fall/Winter 2020 The Smurfs collection.
Supreme first teased the collab last month, but now we get an official look at the apparel and accessories capsule. The Smurfs collection consists of a leather jacket, GORE-TEX shell jacket, denim trucker jacket, sweater, hoodie, GORE-TEX pant, jeans, T-shirt, beanie, and skate decks.
Before gaining popularity in the United States in the '80s, The Smurfs debuted as a comic series in 1958 by Belgian cartoonist, Pierre Culliford, also known as Peyo. It was first referred to as Les Schtroumpfs, as the series followed small blue creatures living in a European forest village during the Middle Ages. Since debuting in 1958, The Smurfs has expanded into film, TV, video games, theme parks, and now, fashion.
