"Supreme/Elliott Smith. 11/12/2026 Elliott Smith was an American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumental musician best known for the solo records he released throughout the 1990s. Smith’s distinctive vocal style, deeply personal lyrics and nuanced chord progressions stood boldly apart in an era otherwise defined by grunge’s heavy distortion and aggressive energy. Smith was born in 1969 and raised in northern Texas and Portland, Oregon. He studied philosophy at Hampshire College, where he met Neil Gust. The classmates returned to Portland after graduating and formed the band Heatmiser. Heatmiser released three albums before disbanding in 1996, though Smith had already begun recording and performing solo material some years prior. Smith’s debut solo album Roman Candle arrived in 1994, though he never expected it would be released in its entirety. Recorded in his then-girlfriend and Heatmiser manager JJ Gonson’s basement, Roman Candle was raw and intimate, and like the record that followed it – 1995’s Elliott Smith – was shaped by a stark, lo-fi approach. Smith’s 1997 album Either/Or is widely considered his most defining – a bridge between the minimal acoustic melodies driving his first two records and the more expansive instrumental arrangements found on 1998’s XO and 2000’s Figure 8, the final releases of Smith’s lifetime. Director Gus Van Sant used three Either/Or tracks and commissioned an original song, “Miss Misery,” for his acclaimed 1997 drama Good Will Hunting.
Smith died at the age of 34, and his work continues to influence generations of artists. Although he described his lyrics as broader stories rather than direct confessions, the candor with which he addressed his struggles and experiences shapes his songwriting’s enduring impact. With the permission of the Estate of Elliott Smith, Supreme has worked on a new collection for Fall 2026. The collection consists of a Work Jacket, Hooded Sweatshirt, Thermal, three T-Shirts and Beanie. Available November 12th. Available in Asia November 14th."
