Supreme has joined forces with Zoo York for Spring 2025, and this one feels personal for anyone who grew up skating on rough pavement, hopping subway turnstiles, or tagging rooftops.
This isn’t just another fashion drop. It’s a reminder of when New York skateboarding had its own attitude, separate from the polished look coming out of California.
Zoo York kicked off in 1993. Back then, most skate brands were coming out of the West Coast, where the sun was always shining and the tricks looked smooth and breezy. On the East Coast, things looked and felt different.
New York City skaters were grinding crusty ledges and dodging traffic. Their style was shaped by the city itself. Loud, fast, unpredictable. Instead of punk shows on the beach, there were boom boxes in the park and handstyles on every corner. Zoo York captured that energy perfectly.
The brand’s defining moment came with the release of The Zoo York Mixtape in 1997. This wasn’t just a skate video. It was raw footage of real street skating cut together with clips of Method Man, Ghostface Killah, Fat Joe, and Busta Rhymes freestyling live on Stretch and Bobbito’s radio show. It featured skaters like Harold Hunter, Peter Bici, Robbie Gangemi, and Jefferson Pang skating real spots. Not perfectly smooth plazas but cracked sidewalks, metal cellar doors, and sketchy ledges. That video showed the world what skateboarding in New York really looked like.
Now in 2025, Supreme is partnering with Zoo York to pay respect to that moment in time. The new collection includes a Soccer Jersey, Hooded Sweatshirt, Baggy Jean, Soccer Short, two T-Shirts, a Camp Cap, Beanie, a Skateboard, and Spitfire Classic Wheels. There’s nothing flashy about the pieces. They stay true to both brands. It feels grounded. Confident. Something that actually speaks to people who remember that era or just admire the grit it represented.
Supreme is not trying to remake Zoo York into something else. They’re letting it breathe. The graphics, the fits, the mood of the whole collection keep things rooted in that classic New York flavor. Baggy silhouettes are back in fashion but they never really left in the skate world. And a Soccer Jersey with a proper fit can say a lot without being loud.
The collection will drop on June 19th, with the Asia release following on June 21st. You’ll be able to find it at Supreme stores and online.
