Supra Sneakers
Supra is an American skate shoe brand founded in Los Angeles in 2006 that made the leap from skateboarding to the mainstream with the Skytop.
About Supra
From the LA skate scene. Supra was founded in 2006 by Angel Cabada, together with professional skateboarders including Chad Muska, Erik Ellington and Jim Greco. Muska described the beginning as “an underground idea between five people that became a crazy explosion.”
The Skytop. The best-known model, Chad Muska’s Skytop, was a striking high-top with a substantial, padded silhouette. The shoe stood out far beyond the skate world and was worn by musicians and well-known names — taking Supra from the skate floor to the mainstream.
Changing owners, same roots. The brand changed hands over the years, until it was acquired and relaunched in South Korea in 2020. Despite that journey, the foundation remains the same: a skate shoe with a distinctive, recognisable character.
