Just because Lil Wayne turned the VMA’s into a Supra fashion show, let’s not forget the main reason Supra is on top right now–their skate team is stacked! In fact, Supra doesn’t even call it a team; it’s a crew–Erik Ellington, Jim Greco, Terry Kennedy, Chad Muska, Antwuan Dixon, Furby and Tom Penny–yes, that is one tight crew. Pictured above is the new red/white/black colorway of Tom Penny’s pro model shoe, the Sport, which is featured in Furby’s first ad. Expect this fireball to be hitting Supra retailers soon.
