It’s been a while since we’ve detailed a new Supra Assault release here on Sneaker News, so here are three new styles for the warm season. We’ll start with the caramel leather edition, whose corded laces, metal eyelets and textile tongue combine to convey a sense of rugged luxury, like a high-end workboot. There’s a black suede edition with a white/gum sole that offers one of quintessential skate shoe colorways and a third in light grey chambray for a seasonally light and springy feel. All solid options, all depicted further below, all yours for the taking from Supra.

Something like the Dunk to the original Skytop’s Air Force 1, the Supra Vaider Mid is one of the Crown brand’s foundational designs. This long running skate shoe has released a huge variety of colorways over the past several years, and today we see two more offering fairly low-key styles. There’s one in black Express TUF and canvas atop a white sole and another mixing dark suedes with Comet TUF and a bit of blue in select areas. Check out both of these in greater detail below, then grab yours straight from Supra.

It’s still the same basic shape with those time tested lines we’ve come to know and love, but the latest Vans Chukka Decons offer a pretty significant overhaul as compared to earlier releases. First up is the rich twill upper, which from a distance has a weave you might connect with carbon fiber. This invites further examination, where you’ll see the altered vulc sole, including a thick foxing band and newly texturized sidewalls. The iconic Vans Waffle traction pattern is still there on the bottom, so have a closer look in more shots below, then grab yours from Off the Wall stockists like The General.

Blue skies ahead for the Stefan Janoski signature series, as we approach the arrival of floral and other patterns. Blue canvas is in today’s forecast, as in the Old Royal and white treatment on this newest Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski. SB’s smash hit boat-style skate shoe is impeccable in these two-toned colorways and the textile upper on these is a great way to stay cool during the summertime. Click through to see these up close, then find yours available at retailers like Lost Art.

If you’ve been following the Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski for the past four years or so, you know this boat-inspired signature skate shoe does (most of) its best work in suede. Simple designs featuring suede uppers with low-key contrasts made the Janoski a powerhouse in the skate and casual markets, but with this formula working so perfectly, Nike SB seeks to avoid complacency. Here we see a Light British Tan and Dark Field Brown combo, a mostly suede composition that adds a bit of the ribbed textile we’ve seen on other pairs at the heel area. The brown answer to Light Redwood and Midnight Fog peers, this latest Stefan Janoski is available at SB shops like Flatspot.

Spring 2013 gave us a nice variety of Stefan Janoski signatures from Nike Skateboarding as well as promise of more good things to come. One thing missing from the SP13 preview we showed you last November is this newest release, the Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski Mid in Wolf Grey canvas. These add red details and white Swoosh/sole to arrive at a crisp and clean result that has a subtle way of drawing more attention than your average grey canvas shoe. Check out more angles below, then grab yours from SB shops like Lost Art.

Supra continues to name its new kicks with indirect subtitles, but this one’s fairly easy to figure out. That’s because even if it’s not referencing Uncle Phil, Carlton and the rest of Will Smith’s Bel Air family, the Supra S1W ‘Banks’ has a luxury look implying you’ve got plenty in your accounts. This black Satin TUF and patent leather build adds gold details to bring them in harmony with one of the more popular colorways in recent years, and you can see some additional angles after the jump before you buy a pair straight from Supra.

Supra’s third retail location opened in Santa Monica last month, and here’s a new tribute to the city that joins New York and Paris with Crown brand flagship stores.

Los Angeles-inspired details include ankle embroidery, footbed script and city hall hangtag, so click through to see more angles, then grab one of 100 pairs this Saturday, April 27th, exclusively at Supra Santa Monica.
