Lil Wayne’s Custom Supra Skytop Created by CLVII
Posted by George Kiel III | Jul 7, 2009
At the end of June, we spotlighted Lil Wayne wearing his then-unidentified, custom Supra Skytop at the BET Awards. At the time, no one knew who had made this unique Skytop for the him; Supra itself did not even know where the shoes came from! However, it was only a matter of time before new surfaced on Lil Wayne’s custom Supra Skytop. Supposedly, this Skytop was designed by the Berlin and Paris based store CLVII. It has also been reported that the aforementioned store gave this shoe to Wayne as a 26th birthday present. With that said, the tongue imprints now make more sense. What are your thoughts on the CLVII-designed Supra Skytop for Lil Wayne? |

Lil wayne kisses baby “birdman” in the mouth so of course he would wear some sneakers that looks like this.
Jul 9, 2009 at 1:29 pm
John doe you need to stop sucking wayne. It’s disgusting
Jul 9, 2009 at 1:00 pm
really?
ribbon and glitter!
wat’s next ponies?
Jul 9, 2009 at 11:01 am
they was for the memory of michael jackson duh…
Jul 9, 2009 at 7:46 am
these are dope
Jul 9, 2009 at 4:03 am
Wayne was rockin the Red TK Society Supras during the “Every Girl” vid…see if you can find some pics of that
Jul 8, 2009 at 9:06 pm
John doe - So is Vanilla Ice to some or MC Hammer!
That “best” sh!t is all opinionated.
Save it.
And chances are, you’re the same person that’s posted in here already, mad much?
Jul 8, 2009 at 8:25 pm
F*CK YOU P*SSY
WAYNES THE BEST RAPPER
Jul 8, 2009 at 8:12 pm
I’m not much of a “Wayne head” as many are now, (like the Pre-Carter Wayne more) but these are pretty fly.
#1: Flare
#2: Exclusivity
Half of you motormouth b!tches on NK don’t even 5-10 pairs of kicks, to top these, let alone have any style.
It’s one thing to play the part online vs. actually doing it offline.
LMAO @ this moron telling dude he doesn’t want to “see him.”
Shut that online thuggin’ up, clown.
Jul 8, 2009 at 1:20 pm
5 stars for flare and creativity but the ribbons got to go and wayne knew this which is why if you look at the performance pic you will see that he had regular white laces. these are okay for superstars and award shows and maybe even a good stunt move for a night on the town but these are obviously not for everyday wear.
“deEboI”^^^ you get the kiddie pass because i’m sure you have to be under 21 and thus have no true knowledge of hip hop and pop culture history. lil wayne was not the pioneer of anything you mentioned but he did play a pivotal role in the resurgence in popularity for what you mentioned.
i wonder if all you guys who write paragraphs of hate spend as much time giving love in your daily lives?
Jul 8, 2009 at 10:39 am
These are unacceptable for men. Anytime, anyplace! And plus they have satin laces…I mean…COME ON! SMH, These are NOT the move
Jul 8, 2009 at 10:37 am
but yeah wayne cant dress and how all of a sudden he has his OWN STYLE? psst….ghost writers…and swagger jacking..what you say? ghost writers…and swagger jacking
Jul 8, 2009 at 10:36 am
the point of the shoes were to be like michael jackson, thats his style, theyre not ever gonna be released no where they were made in honor of michael jackson, c’mon now just think of the glove…he also had a whole bunch of attire made in the style of those supras
Jul 8, 2009 at 7:29 am
can all of you please STOP sucking wayne…he did not start anything. I see idiots saying he started rap/rock…NO (Run DMC + Aerosmith), the bape craze…hell no we we’re on that movement in NY way before you ever seen wayne with bapes. this guy is a poser who is just trying to fit in the current state of urban/high-end fashion and since majority of you have no style you look up to him.
Jul 7, 2009 at 11:16 pm
by the way, if youre wearing tight jeans, then yeah these shoes are perfect for you!! keep it up, youre gonna go sterile, but i guess that doesnt matter to you.
Jul 7, 2009 at 11:13 pm
idiots…all of you. if michael jackson wore these, they would have been hot. lil wayne wearing them is like a thug playing yo-yo. it just looked wrong and stupid!!! i know a couple of you are lil waynes boyfriends, but keep your sensitive emotions for a kanye west concert!!
Jul 7, 2009 at 10:12 pm
these prolly flew out of one of the lines of cocaine he was taking before he went on stage at the BET awards
Jul 7, 2009 at 9:25 pm
Jeez, get off wayne’s nuts “he’s the best rapper alive” stfu. there are thousands of dudes who can spit better than wayne. my homeboy is 14 and is spittin’ waaaaay better than wayne. the shoes are obviously a tribute to mj. for the idioits who dont know that you should die slowly. okay i agree that wayne was a little off on the fashion at the awards. camo shorts and bright kicks dont go. he gets paid tons of money and do whatever the hell he wants to. so don’t hate or hang from his nuts, just comment on the shoes and go on with life. thank you very much
Jul 7, 2009 at 6:16 pm

my lil pony skytops
Jul 7, 2009 at 6:05 pm
the laces are ribbon….ribbon and glitter? wat next ponies?
Jul 7, 2009 at 4:53 pm
deEboI, don’t be silly..run dmc started that way before wayne was born..if you even know who they are..shoes aren’t my style..but if wayne wants to rock em..let em rock them..and stop hatin!
Jul 7, 2009 at 4:52 pm
bedazzled isnt fly
Jul 7, 2009 at 4:39 pm
when i saw the awards i was thinkin they were to pay homage to the great MJ n i still think that but the ribbon shoelaces make me think these r for girls but i think they were a great tribute to MJ no matter what he wore wit em
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:58 pm
drakes alias you shut up too, you sound like u got zero exclusives in the closet so you wouldnt understand, the fantastic 4’s AF1’s(which i own) are purple and see thru, are those gay too? Nah they’re not cuz i said so
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:47 pm
His shoes are just like his rap garbage
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:45 pm
my thoughts on it now? they’re still gay.
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:30 pm
Could gives a damn ’bout the kicks. Though I wish I had that kind of hookup to get some custom made kicks sent to me for my bday. Let alone get them sent to you from Europe.
Wayne the best rapper alive? Well if you mean “rapper” than yes. True Emcee? Hell to the naw! *lol*
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:29 pm
ON MY SOUL MY NIGGA YOU DONT WANNA SEE ME..
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:25 pm
@tRiLL MACKoy
wow….did it take all of your brain cells to type all that? obviously not typing stuff like “u’ll probably neva be fortunate enuff for CLVII or any clothing store to send u shoes on you” haha….word?
Uh errr “to send me shoes on me??” Hmmm….is that some new form of “urban” communication. Hahaha……get a life fool. Hahahaaaaa.
Oh wait wait….”and least but not least.” Errr uh….wha? Hahaha….
Jul 7, 2009 at 3:22 pm

Jul 7, 2009 at 2:28 pm
wtf??? r u talkn about??? mj wore glitter shoes n his vids n a glitter glove..obvious there was sum thawt process to making these shoes with mj in mind..its not like he wore these on the streets claimin they were the dopest supras ever..they were for performing..wen he was doin his job! i guess ur doin urs..haten!
Jul 7, 2009 at 2:26 pm
why are you guys hating on wayne?
he’s the best rapper alive.
i dont wanna hear no jay z or nas or kanye bull sh*t.
If you don’t like the shoe, then just say it.
why do you have to call the man gay.
Stupid f*cks.
Jul 7, 2009 at 2:20 pm
This shoe is too much for a gay man lol
MJ wouldnt wear them either…he wore some crazy ish but i aint never seen him rock no ribbons lol
come on now…
these is garbage…
Jul 7, 2009 at 2:06 pm
regardless if they are a tribute to michael jackson or even if they were made by CLV2(?) they are ugly sparkly shoes with ribbons for laces. for lil wayne>>>yes. for a normal nigg in the hood…definitely not.
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:57 pm
@ ULIKEMYKICKS: hmmmm it must’ve sound’d funnier in ur mind, which is exaclty wear u should’ve kept it…LOL
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:56 pm
@ ifoy03 - i think that was the point of them…
obatron1 aka Eddie Arcadian - 1 u’ll probably neva be fortunate enuff for CLVII or any clothing store to send u shoes on you, especially shoes of this magnitude; i dont u’ll ever have the pleasure of performin at an event dedicated to MJ(the artist); u’re actin’ as if u hav the ability to buy these; and least but not least u’re an idiot “glittery shoes with “LACE MATERIAL” for “LACES… dumb $hit my dude i think u meant ribbons homie which also be used to lace things…
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:43 pm
those were made to pay homage to mj.
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:37 pm
its like they sat on living room couch a b-dazzled it
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:33 pm
I agree w/ DMVernon, I thought they were an homage to MJ..
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:16 pm
they just look like michael jackson shoes… not wayne
Jul 7, 2009 at 1:15 pm
seriously….some of these folks need to fire their stylists on the real.

Jul 7, 2009 at 12:52 pm
ppl cant wait to cop childrens transformers nike’s but have a major problem with these?
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:51 pm
everybody shut up you sound stupid…HE DIDNT MAKE THEM HISSELF…somebody gave them to him and he wore em once, almost a guarantee you’ll never see them again, ive seen him wear shorts twice this summer and you act like its the same pair of camo shorts stop talkin like ppl arent rich it doesnt matter wat u wear when u get any chick, haters
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:43 pm
Camo shorts go with everything!
I think that he wore these since most people in the BET Awards wore something in memory of MJ
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Duh, they have GLITTER on ‘em. To be perfectly politically correct, this looks like a fa66ot would wear these.
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:35 pm
lmao^
i mean weezys got his own style
nd hes pretty fresh even tho he has the hipster look
but idk about these Skytops
they r wayyyyyy 2 sparkly
maybe if the ENTIRE SHOE WASNT COVERED in jewels
it wud set thingsz off better
i mean for a lot of things a little goes a long way
nd i dnt like the laces either
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:27 pm
Looks like they made these for Michael.
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:25 pm
Wayne can’t rock’em right!!! at the awards he had on CAMO pants and theese SPARKLY shoes!!! I mean WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jul 7, 2009 at 12:24 pm
