About the original
The Supreme x Vanson Leathers x b.b. Simon Backpack is a three-way collaboration produced for Fall/Winter 2025. Vanson Leathers has hand-made motorcycle jackets in Fall River, Massachusetts since 1974; b.b. Simon has produced Swarovski crystal- and stud-studded belts and accessories since 1987. The backpack is constructed in Vanson leather with all-over metal studs, an embroidered Vanson racing patch, a Supreme box logo patch, and a crystal-studded "vanson" wordmark across the front — the studs and wordmark are b.b. Simon's contribution. It was released in black and orange colorways and is exclusive to the collaboration.
About Vanson Leathers
Vanson Leathers is an American motorcycle apparel manufacturer founded in 1974 by Mike van der Sleesen and Jamie Goodson in Boston, Massachusetts. The company's name is a portmanteau of the founders' surnames. Production moved to Fall River in 1987, where it still operates from the Laurel Lake Mill. Vanson made its reputation building racing leathers for Daytona 200 winner Dale Singleton in 1979, and has since outfitted riders including Freddie Spencer, Giacomo Agostini, and Nicky Hayden. Each jacket is cut and sewn by hand, with up to 126 steps per garment. Supreme has collaborated with Vanson on leather jackets and racing suits.
