About the original
The Nike Denim Puffer Vest is a sleeveless puffer built in cotton denim shell fabric with synthetic down-style insulation and quilted baffles across the body. Nike was founded in Eugene, Oregon in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman and rebranded to Nike in 1971. The denim shell is a departure from Nike's standard nylon and polyester puffer fabrics and was produced specifically for the SS24 collaboration. The Supreme version places a large Nike Swoosh and wordmark on the back panel and adds a Supreme embroidery at the collar. Insulation, baffle pattern, and hardware match the standard Nike puffer vest construction; the denim shell and back-panel branding are the only changes.
About Nike
Nike is an American sportswear corporation founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by track coach Bill Bowerman and runner Phil Knight in Eugene, Oregon, and renamed Nike in 1971. The Swoosh was designed that same year by graphic design student Carolyn Davidson for thirty-five dollars. Bowerman prototyped the Cortez and the waffle-sole Moon Shoe, and the Air Max line, introduced in 1987, made Tinker Hatfield's visible-air midsole a signature. Nike now produces footwear and apparel across running, basketball, football, and training, and owns Jordan Brand and Converse. Supreme has collaborated with Nike repeatedly since 2002 across Air Force 1, Air Max, and Dunk.
