Supra Chad Muska Skytop high tops

Back to work with the blues after a scoarching back holiday? Well, here’s something to cheer you up, the new Supra skytop high top trainers from Supra footwear. These skytops feature some really nice material application utilizing the ever glamorous faux croc in black coupled with a luxurious black suede. Not an outrageous colourway for a Supra skytop or for supra that matter. however, the back to basics black upper with white vulcanized outsole caught our eye.

This skytop some how sparkled at us from the sea of colour in the rest of the supra line for this season. Maybe it’s that with all the colour around at the moment what made us sit up and take notice was this trainers modest simplicity and subtle detail. Or, maybe it was something else…. either way well done Supra footwear on yet another banging skytop colourway!

available to buy now at route one: Supra skytop black / croc suede

DC shoes Josh Kalis white / grey leather

It doesn’t feel like a decade ago that Josh Kalis had his first pro shoe on DC shoes, but i i just realised that it pretty much is! time flies that’s for sure and DC as a once humble skate shoe brand have come along way. Producing quality skate shoes just wasn’t enough and so with the help of a mega ramp, a large wall, excellent snowboard and surf teams and the MTN LAB, they are now a house hold name.

Kalis is one of my all time favourite skateboards and still in my opion holds the title for most stylish tre flip, and that is one hell of a claim. Kalis has been with DC shoes a long time and this his 7th shoe on the brand is well deserved. The DC Kalis is featured here in white grey leather this shoe comes in around £60.00 and has all the tech features you’d expect from a DC shoe:

• Super suede, a superior version of suede that is more durable whilest maintaining grip and feel.
• Heavy duty suede upper
• soft full grain leather and full grain nubuck upper
• eyelets on medial side
• TPU eyelets
• foam padded tongue
• performance TPR wrap cupsole
• innovative DGT outsole for enhanced board control and durability
