Supra Skytop II ‘Goldie’ Released Under The Radar
If you haven’t already heard the Supra Skytop II Gold/Black, also known as the Goldie, released under the radar this past Black Friday on November 27th. Details about the release were slim when we gave you previews of the sneakers earlier this month and the official Supra website had not listed any details regarding the sneakers being released. We just so happened to catch new of the sneaky release while checking out the Factory 413 website, taking notice to a banner on the site which announced the release of the Gold/Black Skytop II on Black Friday as an exclusive Factory 413 model.
If you were hoping to get a pair of the Goldie Skytop II’s i hate to tell you but your shot is slim to none at this point. We had figured with such a limited released we would defiantly see resellers tryin to make a buck on the sneakers on eBay but as it stands at this time there are no Supra Skytop II models available for sale.
Supra Skytop II ‘Gradient’ – Fit Pic
Sometimes it can be hard for people to really get a feel of how they’ll like a specific sneaker until they get a chance to see a pair in person, or atleast catch a shot of the sneakers actually being worn by somebody (a.k.a. a “fit pic”). With that being said, and knowing a lot of you are on the fence when it comes to the Supra Skytop 2 we wanted to present to you this photo of none other then Chad Muska rockin out in the Supra Skytop II ‘Gradient’.
I think i personally still prefer the original Skytops but i will have to wait until i can actually get my hands on a pair to try on myself before making a final call. Does seeing this fit pic change any of your minds when it comes to the looks and styling of the Skytop II? Click the jump to check out the full uncropped photo. Via: Factory 413
Supra Skytop II ‘Gradient’ – More Pictures
Thanks to Westcoast_D from SupraTalk we have a few more images of the Supra Skytop II ‘Gradient’. As we have come to learn already this very edition of the Supra Skytop II is a limited release produced in a total of 600 pairs, many of which are currently traveling the world on the Supra Skytop II World Tour.
Do their their limited availability, and the fact they are only going to be sold in 10 shops throughout the country, we only thought it was right to bring you a couple more photos of the sneakers since hardly any of us are going to be our hands on a pair unless we scoop em on eBay. I cant particually say i am a big fan of the Skytop II, and i know a lot of you have expressed the same feelings on Twitter, however there is still a great deal of people who are diggin em so for those of you these are for you.

Supra Skytop II – Gold/Black Patent
Supra Footwear is currently gearing up and getting ready to launch their Supra Skytop II World Tour, a tour which will a stop at 10 exclusive boutiques throwing a little release party at each stop and drop a limited number of the Supra Skytop II ‘Gradient’. Due to their limited availability and the fact each pair will be indivually numbered the Gradient Skytop II is sure to be a popular seller among Supra fans, collectors and resellers.
These Gold Supra Skytop II’s though may just have enough of what it takes to become a much hotter item the Gradient model. The upper sports a metallic gold base which is accented by black patent leather and a white vulcanized sole unit. As you all should have come to know by now Supra has a habit of coming through with a few gold versions of some of their staple models, so its actually no surprise to see a gold Skytop II. Majority, if not all of these gold shoes produced by Supra have also been released around the Holiday season, so it may be safe to say we can expect these later this year, possibly alongside the Gold Supra TK Society which for some reason or another magically vanished for the Supra website with no response as to why. The sneakers are a size 7.5 and have MUSKA 002 debossed across the tongue, and details like this lead us to believe this is not a pair of sample and rather a pair of sneaker part of an upcoming limited release.
When further details involving a release are confirmed we will be sure to keep you posted. For now click here to check out more detailed photos of the sneakers. Via: SupraTalk
Supra Skytop II World Tour
A couple weeks ago when we showed you the Supra Skytop II. Unfortunately due to some resources out there, a couple of the details involving the initial release were wrong. We have now learned that this specific colorway of the Supra Skytop II has been dubbed “Gradient” and will be released throughout the world at 10 exclusive boutiques as part of the Supra Skytop II World Tour.
The tour will start in Paris at Colette and end in Atlanta at Wish, with a total of 8 stops inbetween over a two week period. At each location Supra Footwear will release 36 individually numbered pairs of the Supra Skytop II “Gradient”. One thing im not to sure about is that the flyer (pictured after the jump) says 600 pairs each individually numbered with only 36 pairs at each shop. 36 x 10 = 360. Where are the other 240 going? Should be more like 60 at each location if there are 600 pairs.
Either way, click here to check out the flyer which includes a list of all the stops and dates for the Supra Skytop II World Tour and best of luck getting a pair.
