Sic'em! Hooded Sweatshirt (Supreme exclusive)
About the original
The WTAPS SIC’EM!! Hooded Sweatshirt is a heavyweight cotton-fleece pullover hoodie from WTAPS, the Tokyo military-utility label founded by Tetsu Nishiyama (TET) in 1996. The body is built on WTAPS’ standard hood pattern with a kangaroo pocket, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a drawcord-adjustable hood. The chest carries a multicolor varsity-style “SIC’EM!!” text graphic — a recurring WTAPS callout reworked across multiple seasons of WTAPS graphic product. Construction is a brushed-back cotton fleece in WTAPS’ standard weight. The Supreme FW21 collaboration uses the same WTAPS hood with co-branded woven labels at the interior. WTAPS distributes through their own GIP Store retail channel and authorized stockists in Japan, Europe, and the US.
About WTAPS
WTAPS is a Japanese streetwear label founded in 1996 by Tetsu Nishiyama in Tokyo, with roots in the Ura-Harajuku scene. Nishiyama, who launched his first label FPAR (Forty Percents Against Rights) in 1993, took the WTAPS name from a military term meaning the second shot always finishes the target. The brand draws on military uniforms, workwear, and utilitarian gear, translating sourced details into garments cut from heavyweight cottons, ripstop, and CORDURA. In 2011 Nishiyama opened the GIP (Gorilla: The Incubation Period) flagship store in Shibuya. Supreme has collaborated with WTAPS on co-branded outerwear, knitwear, and graphic apparel across multiple seasons.
