About the original
The Spitfire Cat T-Shirt is a graphic tee from Spitfire Wheels, the San Francisco skateboard wheel brand founded in 1987 by Jim Thiebaud and Fausto Vitello as an offshoot of Deluxe Distribution. Spitfire's flaming-bighead logo has been printed on team-rider boards and graphic tees since the company's first wheel formula. The cat graphic is part of Spitfire's long-running illustrated tee program. The Supreme SS18 collab applies co-branded chest and back graphics to the standard 6-ounce cotton tee that Spitfire sells through skate shops worldwide. Construction, weight, and fit match Spitfire's in-line tees; the co-branding is the only change.
About Spitfire
Spitfire Wheels is an American skateboard wheel manufacturer founded in 1987 in San Francisco by Jim Thiebaud and Tommy Guerrero under the Deluxe Distribution umbrella. The brand's flaming-head logo was drawn by artist Kevin Ancell. Spitfire's Formula Four urethane, released in 2014, became a standard pour for street and park skating, and the brand's Classic and Conical shapes remain catalog staples. Spitfire sits alongside Thrasher, Real, and Anti Hero in the Deluxe family of San Francisco skate labels. Supreme has collaborated with Spitfire on co-branded wheels, apparel, and accessories over many years.
