So, I am a complete outsider to whole streetwear thing, or any fashion in general. I came upon this label/whatever is the right term called supreme and I have to wonder: Why do people pay 300 dollars for a completely white t-shirt? Or 195 for a t-shirt that has a screenshot from black sabbath music video on it? Or 210 for a t-shirt with panel from Akira on it? Is it handmade from some super cotton or what makes these shirts so expensive? As far as I can tell, they are 1:1 identical with any sort of band or fan shirt so the quality of the shirt must be really high. Right?Also, does Black Sabbath know supreme sells shirts with screenshot from their music video on it? Or does Katsuhiro Otomo know they sell shirts with panels from Akira on it?I am seriously curious in hearing an explanation for the price of these shirts since they all look like normal fan shirts. They don't stand out at all from a general band shirt or whatever and if I were to take a blindtest, I probably couldn't tell the other from the other.So what makes these Supreme shirts so goddamn expensive? I am not trying to be like 'huehue look so stupidly expensive who buys this shite'. I am seriously curious about this. What makes these shirts so valuable? Are they licensed? What is going on here? Please explain ;_;' via /r/streetwear https://ift.tt/2IClu5e
