Reflective Grid Nylon Anorak (Supreme collab, exclusive)
About the original
The Supreme/LACOSTE Reflective Grid Nylon Anorak is a half-zip pullover made from nylon taslan printed with a 3M reflective grid pattern, with a drawstring hood, front kangaroo pocket, and LACOSTE and Supreme logos embroidered on the chest and sleeve. Released in April 2018 at $208, it was part of Supreme's second collaboration with LACOSTE, the French sportswear house founded in 1933 in Troyes by tennis champion Rene Lacoste and textile manufacturer Andre Gillier. The reflective grid fabric was developed specifically for this collab and does not appear in LACOSTE's retail line, which traditionally builds anoraks from solid-color nylon or cotton-poly without retroreflective treatments. The anorak released in black, royal blue, and red colorways.
About LACOSTE
Lacoste S.A. is a French apparel company founded in 1933 by tennis champion Rene Lacoste and textile manufacturer Andre Gillier in Troyes. Lacoste designed the L.12.12 polo shirt in 1933 using petit pique cotton to replace the long-sleeved woven shirts worn on court, and the crocodile embroidered on its chest is considered the first visible logo on a consumer garment. The company expanded into footwear, fragrance, and leather goods, and its core tennis-adjacent sportswear remains in continuous production. Supreme and Lacoste have released multiple co-branded seasonal collections since 2017 spanning polos, track sets, and bags.
