Supreme is no stranger when it comes to voicing their political opinions.
Even though those opinions are usually on the anti-government, anti-establishment (that’s why we love them!) end of the spectrum, they have been known to share their opinion on a particular candidate, like they did in 2006 with their famous “Fuck Bush” box logo stickers.

They did just that again yesterday, sharing the above post on Instagram expressing their support for Hillary Clinton while downing the orange buffoon himself, Donald Trump. Getting the whole skate team together for a political related photo was likely a challenge in itself (Jason Dill doesn’t look too thrilled to be there), but we think it’s awesome they’re encouraging the youth to go vote, even though we personally aren’t giant fans of either candidate.
When a brand has a position of power and uses it to make a statement, they deserve your respect, or at very least begrudging acknowledgement. Supreme could have stood pat and not said anything, but they shared their views and encouraged their massive following to go to the polls and get their votes in.
So do as Supreme says and go vote on the 8th. Don’t like either candidate? That’s fine. You can shoot for a 3rd party, like the Green Party (our personal favorite this time around). You’ve got a voice … don’t let it go to waste!
Plus, you already know if Supreme tells you to do something, you’ve got to do it. That’s how this hypebeast life works.
