What is the Factory Cost of a Supreme and Palace Hoodie?

Joe and I cut up a supreme and palace hoodie and tell you about which factories it’s made in. We filmed a similar video for Stone Island and CP Company on his channel.

Hey! I've got a content suggestion : I think many of us wouldn't know where to buy good quality basics : great jeans, white cotton shirt, trench coat, leather perfecto or timeless handbag. Maybe you could help out with your brands & factories knowledge ?

[@maxxyboyy69]

We all want to know!!

[@sheldondinkleberg4181]

this is quite simple to find. Levi’s jeans, just search “100% cotton tee pack” and you’ll find white ones, the last three you state will honestly require YOU to research yourself. those aren’t cheap nor items you just buy online without ever trying on. please just find local places go try the items on, feel them and determine for yourself the quality and price point you want to spend.

the undercut to skaters and the attention to detail is funny. skate culture provides so many style notes to fashion for a reason. skaters are tasteful people and pay crazy attention to detail, especially in their craft, media, and fashion (quality included). skating alone needs so much attention to detail.

[@stephenmcnamara8318]

The reason for the double knit rib should be clear. The rib look on the outside is substantial - and what you have to go with to look big and chunky - but it also has a tendency to spread as it is much more sweater like. to stop that some people put a small amount of lycra yarn into the knit - to have it bounce back, but that is almost always visible - and gives a plastic feel. If you double knit with the much less elastic single jersey on the back side, it will keep its taughtness and shape better during wear and wash. I've made millions of sweats all over the world, and all of these are stylistic choices, accommodations, and just like one of you said, sometimes something the factory experimented with once, and then just started pushing out to their customers as a special aspect. Often the buyers and product managers don't like to get into that level of understanding - and they end up just sticking with the factory because - stuff from them just feels different. Another thing is how often the choices are made based on whatever inspiration sample the buyer had in that moment. The supreme very clearly has every hallmark of a 1990 Champion Reverse Weave - which would have cost $49 retail even back then - which they may have picked up at a vintage shop - and the dryness, weight and details just made the entire thing seem "perfect" The blue marks on the inside are from the factory and are to line up where the embroideries should go - and tend to go away in the wash. The one guy should know you don't really have any minimums on garment dying - maybe 50pieces depending on what size tubs you are working with - but also what your tolerances are on consistency. I do have to say I am very impressed with hitting the 500 exactly on such a light colorway - I would be interested to know what a dark color comes out at, my guess would be 512gsm. The grey heather marl - looking from outside is not YARN DYED - it is fibre dyed usually...can also be achieved with yarn dying a blended yarn (Meaning CVC) where the cotton takes on the color more than the poly. But the classic Grey Heather that is used on so many sweats is dyed at cotton fibre level in a blow room BEFORE it is spun into yarn - with big books of what color shades you are looking for. If you are not picking a yarn and color that is on stock - this could increase minimums tremendously - as these blow rooms are a pain in the kiester to clean up and set up.

This Palace hoodie is their "premium" line, with the white tag on collar. Their hoodies or tees don't always have the white Palace tag, they sometimes have the Triferg logo printed on inside of the collar instead. These one are less expensive and are a bit less quality, from my experience. I am always very satisfied with Palace though. I like your content a lot, keep it up ! 😊

[@ogshoeplugogshoeplug5039]

I buy the only buy the stiff feeling hoodies from Supreme. I love the comfort and the feel. Also, the are super warm and last forever!

[@arsenal_tackle_fishing]

pre-2016 supreme hoodies are way thicker/heavier than the current Supreme hoodies. The current supreme hoodies are boxy, loose fitting and not as heavy. I always find myself going back to the Champion reverse weave hoodies are great and affordable!!!!

[@princequestly2218]

Yeah those champion reverse weave are some of the best hoodies they stay in shape perfect. I have like every color.

[@30m3]

Can you pull apart an Arcteryx Veilance jacket or coat. Maybe the Isogon MX

[@phin1871]

I think you also need to consider which season collection that the hoodie belong. Some brand made their fall winter item heavier and summer thinner. That supreme looks like it from FW and the Palace is from Summer

[@urnan7616]

This was actually such a great fun way of learning fabric processes, maybe I didn’t need a uni degree

[@InnerWorldsNetwork-jz8mt]

Supreme = New York. There's intention behind that hoodie. But great, was going to use the same factory. Don't believe all their stuff is made this way.

[@minerforjob32]

My new favorite channel!

[@Worldtop10_GH]

awesome job Will, I love your videos

[@grzegorzlewandowski8803]

That horizontal weave you are talking about is the hallmark of Champion's classic premium sweatshirts. It was Champion that introduced this technique, patented I think back in the 1930s, and it's called Reverse Weave - shrink resistant, durable, and made to last. All things in this line are clearly marked on the label.

[@stephenmcnamara8318]

Yup These guys know a LOT about fabric - down to that it is carded yarn, and such. But I am very surprised how little they know of classic Champion reverse weave...17-18oz was the standard (500gsm) - and you find almost no one going over 360 today. But if you own any of the 1990 type ones anymore - you know every supreme detail is like taking an old 1990 Champion and just copying it. Yes - 500gsm was quite substantial and normal - as was the way too heavy doubled hood....but if worn in winter in NYC - that is the only time you are pulling it up over your head and thankful

[@princequestly2218]

Yeah those champion reverse weave hoodies are still some of the best hoodies you can get, it’s really all I buy. the shape stays so perfect through washes and dries.

I MEGA want that Loro Piana video!!

[@skeedotreed1084]

Great video. I’m interested to see if you guys could do a Spring/Summer hoodie from Supreme. This was a Fall/Winter one so they’re typically thicker to combat the NY cold, but the Spring/Summer ones are SLIGHTLY less thick

[@RaphGad]

Love this

[@sssaturn]

ppl wanna clown me for still buying supreme, but their garments (excluding the ones made in china) are and always have been quality.

[@ThePeacePlant]

I don't even buy shirts because of brand or look, so you don't even need to buy because others says you should or shouldn't be buying from a specific brand. I go off of shape and quality of fabric. The shirts I have been wearing for the past 5 years come from Walmart and they are great quality. Sorry I won't give away what brand and I am not the only one that knows because they always sell out of the ones I buy now a days, so it looks like I might have to buy another brand from elsewhere, which I am upset about, because the price I buy them for is unbeatable for the quality

Watching this as a knitter is so funny to me. The rib on one side, flat on the other makes sense to me! It would help how the rib sits and be more comfortable against the skin

Nice review and breakdown video. This Supreme hood is built for the cold uk weather and places like NY, Canada and Europe. You've got to add that into your assessment like you've add the fact its good for protection when falling as a skateboarders. I mean after all this is a street brand.
