After finding major success, the imprint launched an apparel line, which Lee eventually sold out of his Spike's Joint retail outposts in New York and Los Angeles.Championing the director's monumental career, Supreme's 40 Acres collaboration features a varsity jacket, a baseball jersey, two T-shirts, and a six-panel hat. Among the standouts, the varsity jacket houses a circular 40 Acre patch and Supreme lettering on the chest, with a massive X across the back, nodding to Lee's Denzel Washington-led film on the titular Black activist, Malcolm X.Down the line, the baseball jersey hosts the same 40 Acres patch, with "Supreme" and "40" block letters on the back much like a player's name and number.
