Supra TK Society Pro Model Releases

A few months back we saw the initial pictures of Terry Kennedy's pro model for Supra. Now Supra has finally announced an official release and the 2 colorways that will be dropping.





The TK Society Pro Model will be dropping internationally on May 17th at select Supra accounts, so hit up your local dealer.


HighSnobiety caught up with TK for a nice interview about the shoe, clothes, skating, and how he hooked up with The Fly Society and Curren$y.

From Terry:
"The shoe was probably already 50 percent done already the first time I saw it. It was a high, already had the two straps, but there were a lot of things we started to change. We changed the sole on it. It was a cup sole at first, so we changed it to a vulcanized sole which skates better, because I wanted to make something that I was comfortable skating in, but at the same time was fashionable. Then we hid the laces, tucked em in so when you skate ‘em your laces don’t rip. Then we put a special sock liner on the inside, so when you slide your feet in it hugs your feet. That’s why people trip when they put it on, it’s so comfortable.

I like to strap em when I skate in ‘em, give my ankles some support. Then when I’m not skating I like to rock ‘em unstrapped, with the straps just flaring out, get the swagger going."

Supra - Terry Kennedy Pro Model

There have been tons of sneak peaks, shots of TK wearing the models, and even a crazy rose gold sample. But now Supra is actually releasing some studio pics of the upcomming TK's.




Not sure how these will actually work for skating (being that they're a pro model and not an NS) since hi-tops are hard enough for me to skate in. But they do look pretty cool, and it seems like that's the most important part with a dude like TK.

Look out for these unstrapped in all their glory very soon.

Shiny Metallic Supras (Suprano & TK)

While Supra has been and continues to come with strong releases, in doing that there are always some misses. So while this may be one of my many unpopular opinions here are some shiny metallic Supras that just aren't doing it for me.

1st up: The rose gold TK model.
These are samples as of now but knowing TK (and Supras metallic love) they very well might be released.


Next: Jim Greco's new model from Supra, the Suprano in metallic purple.

To me these aren't nearly as bad as the rose golds, but I can only imagine how bad these might turn out when creased or even worse skated in.


The Supranos will be available at select Supra accounts in January, while the highly anticipated TK's are still slated for a Spring release. (unless you can find a sample pair like these on ebay)

Aaaah!! I have yet to get a pair of Supras and the Terry Kennedys are making me uber anxious.

The pic above is a sneak peak of the Gold colorway. Take a look at the other colorways too if you haven’t seen ‘um yet.
