Supra’s colorway and pack inspirations are all over the place these days, and here’s one that’ll expose you the most popular sport fish in the US Pacific Northwest. The Supra Society Mid ’Coho’ applies salmon pink accents to a black full grain leather upper for an upscale look that still has some youthful exuberance about it. These come in at the top end of the Society pricing scale thanks to the premium materials; is their eye-catching twist on the familiar ‘bred’ Bulls look worthy of a chunk of your early spring sneaker budget? Take a closer look after the jump and grab yours straight from Supra.

The latest round of Skytop IIIs paired a navy and red look with another opting for magenta and yellow in the same blocking pattern. The first pair was a redux of the palette first seen on Terry Kennedy’s ‘Midnight’ Society, and now we see TK get the nickname once again with this new pair similar to that second Skytop 3. The Supra Society ’Mag’ hints at its primary color, this pair managing to escape looking like an incomplete printer test page thanks to a totally white vulc sole that eschews Supra’s traditional two-striped appraoch. Click through to see more of the Satin TUF setup and grab yours from Supra stockists including their own e-store.

If Supra has a surplus of anything, it’s pack names, as we’ve seen the Crown brand come up with some nicknames of late that have been interesting, to say the least. This latest release is a bit more direct, but still requires some background knowledge of military aesthetics and jargon for you to put together the theme. The Supra Society ’Surplus’ was crafted in olive green ripstop canvas, the kind of rugged and earthy look you need when going into battle. Ripstop lives up to its name when it’s exposed to tears and abrasions, so expect these to last you quite a bit longer than your average canvas skate sneaker. Check them out up close after the jump and grab yours at Supra or one of their retailers.

The Supra Society pictured above is a brand new combination of colors and materials, but we wouldn’t blame you for thinking it looks familiar. More countries in the world use the red, white and blue trio than any other color combination, a third of the teams set to begin spring training for Major League Baseball share the same colors and we’re currently in the leap-month of an Olympic year where the host and the Games’ historically dominant nation both rock this familiar look. How skateboarding has yet to earn a spot as an Olympic sport is mindboggling given the inclusion of events like ballroom dancing, rhythmic gymasics and snowboarding, but this almost USAB-style ‘Midnight’ Society gives you that five-rings look until the IOC recognizes what’s likely the most significant new sport to emerge in the past half-century. Let us know how these compare to the litany of similarly colored kicks we’ve seen over the years, and grab your ‘Midnight’ Society straight from Supra.

That thing we said about Supra taking the direct approach to commemorating Valentine’s Day 2012? You can double down on that, as this new release joining the V-Day Vaiders not only matches the Vaider’s obvious color scheme, but it’s also the second model to offer a ‘Heartbreaker’ theme. Following up on 2010′s all-red Skytop comes this new Supra Society in a combination of waxed suede and Express TUF, along with key details like distinctive heel striping, a broken heart hangtag and a similar symbol on the insoles. Supra isn’t shy about taking advantage of the themes that come around each year; are these the most exciting holiday-themed drop yet? Only 413 pairs will be available at select retailers on Saturday, February 11th, so click through for the list of stores plus a few more photos.

The endless supply of packs from the fine folks at Supra have done a good job making sure fans of the crown brand have no shortage of choices for both color combos and materials. The Supra Wet Pack lands in the latter category, dropping a trio of sneakers that boast Neoprene construction with the SUPRATUF technology finish. The resulting footwear should keep your feet anything but ‘wet’, but you get the point. The colorway actually matches well with the gloomy weather that you’re trying to avoid, with a cloudy palette of greys that gets some blue treatment here and there. The drop includes a Supra Dixon, Supra Skytop, and Supra Society-all of which can be seen in greater detail after the jump.

Owing at least in part to the popularity of the Air Jordan Legacy and MJ’s loyalty to the University of Carolina, soft blue shades have been common on all kinds of sneakers for quite a while. It’s easy to push these muted blues toward pastel or make them metallic the greyer they look, but considerably more rare to see the same attention given to equally capable shades of green. So if you like the look of sage but don’t want the saturation of a mint green, Supra has a new swamp thing we think you’ll love for sure. The Supra Swamp Pack is an icky name to apply to such a smooth trio of green gunny TUF’d and burgundy accented hightops. The Supra Society, Sktyop and Thunder all look to be in peak condition and you’ll be able to get one or all three right now straight from Supra.
