It's hard to believe that this Sunday will mark 10 years since terrorists and extremists attacked the United States of America on September 11, 2001. A decade later, lives are still being impacted by the events that unfolded on that day, but the country continues to persevere in the aftermath. In a symbolic salute to the "Twin Towers," individuals who lost their lives on that day and the brave men and women who risked their own in rescue efforts, SUPRA Footwear is introducing the Commemorative Pack this weekend.
SUPRA appropriately chose their two tallest silhouettes to form the Commemorative Pack. Chad Muska's Skytop II and Terry Kennedy's Society do the honors, draped in varying shades of grey nubuck, trimmed with black kidskin leather. Each shoe features the debut of SUPRA's new single wrap, white honeycomb foxing, along with a grey outsole. The interior features custom insoles that read "Never Forget" and each set comes complete with an NYFD-style 413 hang tag.
Each shoe is limited to 413 pairs and is sequentially numbered along the interior. Proceeds from sales will be donated to charity.
The Commemorative Pack will be released at Supra Footwear and the following retailers on Saturday, September 10th:
