Supreme and Yohji Yamamoto take a page from ‘Tekken'

Graphics are inspired by the iconic fighting game and motocross.

Supreme

Tekken 8 may not have a release date yet, but Supreme is helping build anticipation with its latest collaboration. Following an outdoor collection with Nike ACG, the streetwear imprint is now pairing with designer Yohji Yamamoto Tekken-inspired apparel.

The upcoming drop splits its designs between the iconic fighting game, motocross, and other inspired graphics. The Tekken saga holds the Guinness World Record for longest running, cohesive storyline in a video game (not just fighting games), and Supreme’s apparel will tap into the biggest fans’ sentimentality.

Characters and motifs from the franchise are spread throughout a nylon bomber jacket, long puffer parka, knit sweaters, T-shirts, and sweatshirts. Some are one-offs with a main characters including Devil Kazuya, Kunimitsu, and King. Others are more graphic-heavy with all-over character collages. A skateboard deck rounds out the Tekken pieces with a reimagined logo and character roster graphic.
