Beer and sneakers are my two most favorite things in this world; so needless to say I was more than a little excited when I saw the SUPRA Beer Pack. SUPRA is shouting out Los Angeles-based apparel shop 413 with their latest shoe pack inspired by American brewing.
The SUPRA Beer Pack features two high tops: a gray Cuttler and a navy blue Thunder. The navy blue Thunder is meant to symbolize the strong and full taste of American beers while the gray Cuttler pays homage to America's famous light beers. Only 413 pairs of each shoe are set to be released with each pair individually numbered on the inside of the tongue. If you're looking for a new pair of bar shoes, I'd definitely recommend checking out SUPRA's latest creation.
