About the original
Coppertone SPORT SPF 50 Continuous Sunscreen Spray is a broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen formulated in a 5.5 oz aerosol can, water-resistant for up to 80 minutes and designed to spray at any angle including upside down. The active ingredients are avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, octocrylene, and oxybenzone. Coppertone was founded in Miami Beach in 1944 by pharmacist Benjamin Green, who originally formulated the product as Red Vet Pet for US Army Air Corps pilots during World War II. The SPORT line, introduced in the 1990s, is formulated for sweat and heat resistance during outdoor activity. The Supreme SS2026 collab applies box logo branding to the can with no change to the formulation.
About Coppertone
Coppertone is an American sun care brand founded in 1944 by pharmacist and former Air Force pilot Benjamin Green in Miami Beach, Florida. Green first developed a red petroleum-based sun protectant called Red Vet Pet to shield World War II servicemen from sunburn, then refined the formula with cocoa butter and coconut oil after the war and began marketing it as Coppertone around 1946. The Little Miss Coppertone illustration, created by artist Joyce Ballantyne, debuted in 1959 and remains the brand's mascot. By 1958 it was the largest-selling sun care brand in the world. Supreme's collaboration applied its graphics to the brand's packaging.
