The Supra Owen has made a serious impact in its first year, issuing a variety of colorways and spawning copycat designs from other action sports-focused brands. The Owen itself can be seen to rely on several of the principles that made the Nike Roshe Run that debuted around the same time a monster hit: breathable mesh upper, lightweight foam sole and (at least the capacity for) a minimalist sensibility. Three new Owens offer a new round of casual running choices for the spring as blue/white and black/white pairs offer tonal counterpoints to the high contrast Chi-style makeup. Let us know which looks best after you’ve seen more shots below, then grab a pair straight from Supra.

The fact that Tom Brady drives an Audi A8 but endorses the new Dodge Dart isn’t a fitting analogy to this latest release from Supra, but it does show how attaching his name to something is sure to draw a bit of extra attention. In the case of the Supra Skytop III ‘Brady’, that curiosity slides into wondering where the moniker came from, because this style would naturally link up with the classic Chicago Bulls look. So while Supra’s latest nickname ends up in the category with other puzzling subtitles, the straightforward dopeness of its marbled canvas upper and doubly-speckled midsole will still attract plenty of shoppers who’ll find them available now straight from Supra.

With a resume now over fifty models deep, Supra continues to give us new styles for the one that started it all. The Supra Skytop has enjoyed a surge of activity over the past few days as we ready for the second quarter, and this latest drop combines a black TUF upper with red sole for an aggressive look with tenacity to match. Get a good look at the abrasion resistant uppers in more photos after the jump, then grab yours straight from Supra.

Here are two facts that aren’t that difficult to comprehend, yet hard to believe: this is the seventh year of the Supra Skytop doing its thing, and yet, we’ve yet to see a single all-royal colorway. A similar style was quick out the gate on the Skytop III, but even with the 2008 tiger-striped suede release (which added significant black striping), this is the simplest blue/white Skytop to date. Have a closer look at its canvas upper after the jump, then grab yours today straight from Supra.

The Supra Skytop is a popular choice for ladies despite having issued relatively few womens colorways. Last October’s ‘Pink Party’ by Elyse Walker is a strong example of the possibilities and now we see three new womens Skytop releases in time for spring. A trio released at this point in history would be incomplete without an animal print look like the cheetah canvas edition, and it’s joined by a fairly feminine grey/purple combo and another in red leather and mesh that adds a bit of flare with golden top eyelets. Have a closer look at all three after the jump, then grab yours straight from Supra.

Supra’s Stevie Williams signature model is back with a couple of bold new colorways in time for spring skating. The Supra S1W arrives at retail in a pattern that no longer qualifies as ‘concealment’, though the neutral shades at play on this blaze-orange lined hightop are certainly capable of blending in with a huge range of outfits. On the opposite end of the spectrum, you have the less visually complex but more aggressive black and red edition, and both are depicted in greater detail below. Have a closer look, let us know if it’s the modern camo or classic bred look that catches your eye, then grab your selection straight from Supra.

You didn’t think that Supra was all about the high-hitting skyscraper silhouettes did you? Proving they can pump out slim cut sneakers with the rest of them is the new Supra Strike, a lightweight looking model with one of the more low cut looks we’ve seen from the Crown Brand. The first three colorways keep things pretty clean, as each sneaker sports a one-color blocking across the upper (Although the soles show some variation as the grey goes for an icy look). See the Supra Strike make its debut right after the jump and pick up your pair from Supra now.

If you had to pick out the best sneaker from each individual year going back two and a half decades, which would you select? Complex decided to do that, compiling the results in a feature they’re calling the 25 Best Sneakers of the Past 25 Years. There are some that probably aren’t too debatable (Air Jordan III anyone?), but the list is far from textbook and definitely contains a few left field nods as a Supra is selected and a trail-ready Nike Free model shows up. Get a quick sample from the list after the jump then see Complex for the full feature.
