As spotted on High Snobity the New York label puts these pieces of feet on the ice indefinitely. Originally slated for Thursday, July 7, SUPREME tapped artist Nate Lowman to remix their Old Skool and SK8-HI silhouettes. The shoes featured bullet hole graphics on the upper panel and midsole. These selections were not only featured on SUPREME’s website, but also on their social media. But last week the post was removed from all of their online outlets.
Although neither brand has revealed why the sneakers disappeared, it seems to be a safe assumption that SUPREME is sensitive to recent tragic events in America. Over the past two months there have been several mass shootings across the country, including one this month on July 4 during an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, Washington. ‘Illinois.
SUPREME Bullet Hole Vans have yet to reappear on resale sites such as StockX, Grailed, or eBay. But when they expect to pay top dollar, these shoes might never be officially released.
