Inside, while trying to video chat my boyfriend to make sure I was getting the right things, I was shouted at for taking pictures and told to look online to see stock. The security outside were rude and appeared to be more interested in joking about with their friends (who they let in without making them wait) but only putting up with that for 10 minutes was fine. I was prepared to wait in line outside so that wasn't an issue and the queue only lasted about 10 minutes which was less than I thought. Went here for my boyfriend to pick up a selection of items he saw online. It doesn’t mean you are a bad person and I’m sure they’d get over it. I think the reviews for this store speak for themselves, so I would avoid this store even if it does mean disappointing someone you love. The mind boggles as to why anyone would purchase something that is ill-fitting and superfluous to requirements just to have the name. The item selection is limited as are the sizes. In a nutshell, the hype is greater than the actual store and the merchandise within. Also having lost forty minutes of their life they needed something to show for it. They had purchased a hoody that was slightly too big as they felt it best to purchase something than disappoint their child. They were in the store for literally minutes. Later on we received a call from the model parents to say they had finished. It was a hot Manhattan day and we though our friends were absolutely mad-mike-bonkers-bat for wanting to do this but it’s apparently what you do for love? We asked the thug, who was guarding this line of dangerous shoppers who were wielding shopping bags with menaces, the waiting time from the point of our friends position (so we could maximise shopping time, obvs) and a grunt came back of “forty minutes”. We went to a local convenience store and got them a bottle of water each and wished them the best of British. Not having children (because frankly we are too selfish) we did not understand our friends desire to join this queue for the happiness of their child but we went with it (well the best we could). I swear down, the Crown Jewels at the Tower of London are less guarded than this poxy insignificant brand. THERE’S MORE! You can’t just join the queue, oh no siree, you have to covertly meet some random in a side street and have your hand stamped!!!? After this you are hemmed in between two runs of parallel barriers like sheep (oh the irony of this is not lost on me) and there were a zillion gangster heavies guarding the route. THE JOKE:- We were told that the queue outside the store was only part of the actual queue That was fine, I don’t queue in the UK so I sure as s**t wasn’t going to be joining this queue - especially when there was nothing in it for me. We approached the store to be told there was a queue. Our friends, who were also our travelling companions for our seven day trip, wanted to visit the store to purchase something for their sixteen year old son. Even Louis Vuitton make mistakes, not often, but in this case, maybe. But hey ho, that’s just personal preference, I suppose. I’m a hardcore Louis Vuitton fan who is puzzled as to why the collaboration between LV and Supreme ever happened. even more so since our recent visit to New York City. I just do not get the whole Supreme thing. Is this your consideration of the customers who buy from you? After spending almost 300 € for a cotton jacket, I have to keep it even flawed. Now that there is internet I was able to buy that print and I paid dearly I made a sacrifice but it arrived defective and I explained all my reasons to them and simply asked them to keep another "Destruction of Purity" jacket aside for me until mine was arrived to be able to replace it, we are talking about 4/5 days. I was a huge fan of Culture Club in the 80s and am a collector so at the time I was very yung and couldn't travel to reach "The Foundry" shop in London in Carnaby Street that had this collection. Why? Because they reproduced a print that Culture Club used in their first TV appearances called "Destruction of Purity" by Sue Clowes a London fashion designer from the early 80s. I explained to him that this jacket has enormous sentimental value for me and that it means a lot to me, I'm not a normal customer who buys one thing or the other, it's the same. They told me to send it back but in the meantime if the jacket would have been sold out they would simply refund me. When I contacted them to see if they could replace it for me it was still available online for sale. I bought a jacket and it arrived defective. This review is not on the store but on the Supreme brand in general and on their seriousness in online sales.
