Who should buy the Supra Aluminum
The high top sneaker showcases its minimalist appeal by applying subdued tones for its colorways. The olive, Navy/Mojave, Bone White, grey, and black colorways can be dressed up or down with almost any article of clothing. To be able to maximize its fashion sense, one can partner it with skinny jeans that perfectly aligns with its high top collar. The white vulcanized sole give off a low profile look that adds to its street flair.
Notable Features
The critical feature of this Supra sneaker is the Gunmetal hardware logo at the heel which completes the overall pristine look. Aside from the heel logo, Supra branding is scattered all over the shoe which can be seen at the tongue, footbed, patch at the back and heel, and on the outsole.
History of the Supra Aluminum
It was a rough start for Angel Cabada and several of his friends to establish a skatewear brand, but their unshaken passion for the sport became their torch of inspiration to move forward. 2006 witnessed the birth of another skate-focused brand called Supra which was founded by Cabada and a handful of people including Chad Muska, Jim Greco, and Erik Ellington.
A successful shoe like the Skytop deserves a sequel and then in 2009, the much anticipated Supra Skytop II was released. The subsequent model lies more on the fashion bracket giving off a much higher high top flair than its predecessor. This model was quickly up for grabs, and it didn't sit on physical stores for very long, even the general releases.
It was almost sure that the company's fame had already penetrated the celebrity limelight by the release of the Skytop III. Icons like Lil Wayne and Jay Z gradually approached the founders of the brand including the consistent Supra supporter, Justin Beiber. As their fanbase expanded, so did their repertoire of Supra shoes.
One exceptional model was the Supra Aluminum which features the same high cut of the Skytop I but in a more minimalist design. It maintained the classic paneling of the Supra brand while utilizing a mix of canvas and textile materials for its upper. Set to impose an evolved style, the Supra Aluminum stands out to pave a new direction for the Supra brand.
