About the original
Comme des Garçons SHIRT is the menswear diffusion line launched by Rei Kawakubo's Comme des Garçons in 1988, producing premium basics and tailored shirting. Its FOREVER range is the house's permanent carry-over line, outside the seasonal collections; the Forever cotton crewneck tee is cut from 100% cotton, made in Turkey, and carries a $72 list price at Dover Street Market New York. Comme des Garçons itself was founded in Tokyo in 1969, and Kawakubo's Paris debut in 1981 helped establish Japanese avant-garde fashion as a force in European ready-to-wear. The Supreme FW18 tee carries the split box logo, the Supreme wordmark halved and mirrored across a vertical center seam, applied to a 100% cotton crewneck body.
