Bart wants a pair of cool new limited-edition sneakers called Slipremes, which are promoted by a kid influencer named Orion Hughes.
Homer goes to buy them, but is intimidated by the long wait and high price, instead purchasing
bootlegs from
his friend Mike Wegman. Bart is unaware, and when he wears them at school, they immediately fall apart. He goes to return them at the Slipreme store, only to be filmed and shamed by various storegoers. Homer catches up to Bart and tries to stop him, but accidentally rips his pants off, exposing his underpants. Humiliated and furious, Bart runs out of the store, and accuses Homer of being uncool. The day after, Orion visits Bart and brings him authentic Supreme merchandise as an apology gift. Bart learns that Orion does not know how to skate, and begins teaching him. Orion, moved by the experience of having a genuine friendship rather than shilling products, designs a limited-edition "Bartman One" sneaker with him. Meanwhile, Homer wears a Slipreme coat and is complimented by Mike, boosting his confidence. Homer gives new clothes to his friends at Moe's, with the Slipreme style becoming popular among middle-aged adults. Bart and Orion fear that the brand is becoming uncool. That night, Bart confronts Homer, who plans to attend the Bartman One release party. At the party, Bart and Orion nervously await the arrival of Homer and his middle-aged friends. Bart calls
Marge, who arrives to reassure Homer that he should be himself, rather than feeling like he is someone better because of the clothes he wears. Homer deflects all the other adults into an aviation history museum, and Bart thanks him for saving the party and keeping the brand intact. However, the Bartman Ones are already sold out. Homer buys a pair of them from Mike, with a similar shoddy quality—however, this time, Bart is not bothered. Over the credits, Orion's father reveals that he is actually a clone, since he feared that he would never love a son as much as himself. ==Production==
