This collaboration between Supra and Berlin sneaker emporium Solebox just might be the coolest Supra Skytop III yet. Why? It they glow in the dark. Yep. Those dull green glow that has fascinated us all since we were four years old.
The SOLEBOX Skytop III upper is outfitted with a plush grey suede upper and green accents. The highlight of the stylish mid top, however, is the translucent grey, glow-in-the-dark TPR cage, heel pull, and outsole, all of which glow a bright green at night. The shoe has a green microfiber tongue and padded lining, SOLEBOX branded sock liner and aglets. It rests on a comfortable, lightweight, white SUPRAFOAM midsole, and it comes with a custom screen printed lace bag with alternate green laces.

January 14, 2013, Fountain Valley, CA—SUPRA has collaborated with Germany’s premier premium sneaker emporium, SOLEBOX, to create the limited edition SOLEBOX Skytop III.
“We have been working closely with SUPRA,” said SOLEBOX founder Hikmet Sugoer, “so we wanted to take it to the next level with our own project. The grey and lime green combo is based on the original SOLEBOX shop front from ten years ago, which had grey walls and a green SOLEBOX logo. And we chose this design for the Skytop III because it is one of our favorites from the SUPRA line.”

“SOLEBOX has become, not only supporters of our brand, but good friends as well,” said a SUPRA spokesperson. “It was only natural that we would get together with one of the finest sneaker institutions in the world and do a collab with Hikmet and his brothers. As usual, they did not disappoint.”
The limited edition SOLEBOX Skytop III is available, Saturday, January 19, at SOLEBOX, other fine SUPRA retailers worldwide (listed below), and suprafootwear.com
