Get ready for what we’d like to say is the coolest sneaker SUPRA has ever released. This is the first new sneaker added to the Skytop franchise since 2013 and is forward thinking in terms of what visually and technically defines a skate shoe.
Rooted in skate, The Skytop V is the next iteration of the iconic pro model series developed by skate team rider Chad Muska. It’s a unisex style that combines the technical capabilities of a skate shoe with the comfort of a running shoe, making it a completely new style in its category. Lightweight, futuristic and stylish, SUPRA continues to break the boundaries on traditional skate sneakers, allowing riders and non-riders alike to never sacrifice style for athleticism.
The Skytop V launch comes after a successful 10-year anniversary for the brand and is influenced by several design elements from the Skytop franchise, an iconic pro model series originally developed by skate team rider Chad Muska.

It’s also designed with a neoprene and Lycra-based bootie for easy slip-on and strong ankle support.
