The origin of the Supra Vaider
In 2006, Supra Footwear was launched in California by Angel Cabada in partnership with various professional skateboarders such as Jim Greco, Chad Muska, Erik Ellington, Tom Penny, and Dennis Martin. Fast forward to 2015, an American athletic company called K-Swiss acquired Supra.
Among the first models launched by Supra was the Raider. It was tagged as the first model under the Supra brand and it bridged the gap between athletic skateboarding shoes and casual street-style footwear. Sometime after that, Supra launched the vulcanized version of the Raider giving rise to the Vaider.
