Silver Bracelet (Supreme exclusive)
About the original
The bracelet is sterling silver with engraved clasps, handmade in London at The Great Frog's Carnaby Street workshop exclusively for Supreme and Y's by Yohji Yamamoto. The Great Frog was founded by Paterson Riley in 1972 on Carnaby Street and has produced hand-cast silver jewelry from that same workshop for over five decades, supplying Lemmy of Motörhead, Slash, and much of the British rock scene. Y's is Yohji Yamamoto's diffusion line, founded in Tokyo in 1972 as his first womenswear label, four years before the Yohji Yamamoto Pour Homme line launched. This FW25 piece is a three-way collaboration with no standalone retail equivalent outside the drop; it retailed at $848.
About Y's
Y's is a Japanese fashion label founded in 1972 by Yohji Yamamoto in Tokyo, established as Y's Company Ltd. before the eponymous Yohji Yamamoto line debuted in Paris in 1981. The label began with menswear-inspired womenswear cut in oversized, uncluttered shapes from washed fabrics in dark colors, drawing on the work clothes of post-war Japanese blue-collar laborers. Yamamoto graduated from Keio University in law in 1966 before studying at Bunka Fashion College. Y's remains the foundation of the Yohji Yamamoto group alongside Yohji Yamamoto and Y-3. Supreme has collaborated with Y's on co-branded outerwear and tailoring.
