About the original
The Supreme x Spyder Zip Up Hooded Sweatshirt is a brushed-back fleece full-zip hoodie with a pouch pocket, ribbed cuffs and hem, a printed graphic on the chest, and co-branded embroidered Supreme and Spyder logos on the chest and back. Spyder was founded in 1978 by David L. Jacobs in Boulder, Colorado to manufacture ski racing apparel and built its reputation outfitting the U.S. Ski Team; the brand's 'bug' web-and-spider logo has been the signature since the early 1980s. Spyder's current mainline equivalent is the Men's Logo Full Zip Hoodie in poly-cotton fleece with the bug logo on the chest. The FW24 Supreme version was released in Black, White, and grey colorways.
About Spyder
Spyder is an American ski apparel brand founded in 1978 by David Jacobs in Boulder, Colorado, started as a mail-order business out of his kitchen selling racing sweaters to ski-team customers. Jacobs, a former member of the Canadian National Ski Team, named the company after the spider-leg-pattern racing pants his sons wore on the circuit, borrowing the "y" spelling from the Ferrari Spyder. The brand outfitted the U.S. Ski Team from 1989 to 2022 and developed early full-body race speed suits used in World Cup competition. Authentic Brands Group acquired Spyder in 2018. Supreme has collaborated with Spyder on technical ski jackets, bib pants, and base layers.
