The FW22 Supreme collab is a jacquard-knit acrylic crewneck sweater with the Dickies horseshoe wordmark intarsia-knit across the chest above a Supreme script in contrasting yarn. It released September 1, 2022 at $148 in black, green, navy, and brown colorways, as part of a capsule that also included a work jacket and matching work pant.
About Dickies
Dickies is an American workwear brand founded in 1922 by C. N. Williamson and E. E. "Colonel" Dickie in Fort Worth, Texas, when the cousins purchased an existing bib-overall company and renamed it Williamson-Dickie Manufacturing. The 874 work pant, introduced in 1967, became the brand's defining product and a staple of skate, hip-hop, and Chicano subcultures from the 1990s onward. VF Corporation acquired Williamson-Dickie in 2017 for $820 million, and Bluestar Alliance bought the brand from VF in 2025 for roughly $600 million. Supreme has collaborated with Dickies on 874 pants, work jackets, and coveralls.
