The launch that had fans around the world lining up for days has hit Hong Kong, where shoppers can book an appointment at the fashion house’s website to get their hands on the Louis Vuitton x Supreme collection

Needless to say, the season’s most coveted menswear items carry Louis Vuitton and Supreme logos. There’s been so much buzz about Louis Vuitton’s autumn/winter 2017 menswear collectionshown in Paris this February, which featured items created in collaboration with streetwear giant Supreme.

“People might say that I’m just jumping on the [streetwear] bandwagon, but it’s part of my DNA,” says Kim Jones, Louis Vuitton’s menswear artistic director, in an earlier interview with us. “[The collection] has probably freaked a lot of people out, but in a positive way.”

Louis Vuitton’s Hong Kong website posted an update on the collection earlier today, allowing fans to register for appointments to buy the limited-edition items.

Once the appointment is confirmed, it won’t be transferable and it only allows a one-time entry. Each guest can purchase up to two Louis Vuitton x Supreme products.

The products, ranging from T-shirts to sneakers, include an ultra-luxurious trunk that retails for HK$565,000 as well as a skateboard that sells for HK$455,000 a pop.
