About the original
The Nike Everyday Plus Lightweight Crew Socks use Dri-FIT moisture-wicking yarn with a targeted cushioned footbed under the heel and ball of the foot, a midfoot arch band for fit, and a low-profile knit that keeps the crew height slim inside training shoes or skate shoes. They are one of Nike's best-selling sock references, typically sold in three-packs or six-packs at $16 per pair equivalent through Nike and Amazon. Supreme's SS21 collab sells the sock as a single pair in co-branded Swoosh and box logo colorways, printed with Supreme branding at the cuff. It retailed at $20 against the standard $16 single-pair price.
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.
