Editorial Review for Supreme – by Nina Emkin
In Short
In the heart of the Fairfax district, this airy men's boutique offers up sportswear perfect for L.A. skaters and urban hipsters. Standouts include super-saturated hoodies, bright tees and crisp, dark denim. The assortment of new-school baseball hats, colorful Nikes, candy-colored duffel bags and graphic caps are great for soaking up some of the streetwear vibe in smaller doses.
Hits: The coolest part of the store is undoubtedly the gigantic skate bowl right behind the cash register.
Misses: It seems boys will be boys--don't be surprised if you find the store clerk posse huddled behind the register chatting away instead of offering any assistance.

I've been to this place multiple times only because they carry Vice magazine. Everytime I go there I am amazed by how snotty and rude the people who work there are. It's like actually answering any questions is hurting their brain. I asked if I could skate their above ground pool, to which they told me, you need to be a pro skater. However, when my blond friend (a girl) asked, they told her all she needed to do was a kickflip. (WTF?) Also, their prices are WAY too high. (Anything that says "supreme" on it will cost you at least $40-$50...if you're lucky). There are lots of cool skate shops in LA without the pretention, so I recommend trying those spots first. Chaos on Vermont is pretty good.
Pros: Vice Magazine free at the door once a month.
Cons: Everything else.
