# Celebratory Skater Shoes The Supra 'Dirty Harry' Celebrates the Films 40th Anniversary By Michael Hines | Published 2011-03-30 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supra-dirty-harry References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2011/03/28/supra-skytop-dirty-harry/) & [suprafootwear](http://www.suprafootwear.com/pages?pageContext=blogEntry&blogId=40) Supra is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the iconic cop film 'Dirty Harry' by releasing the Supra 'Dirty Harry.' The Supra 'Dirty Harry' features an all-black design that Jay-Z would definitely approve of. Unfortunately for Jay-Z, this shoe isn't about him, it's about Clint Eastwood keeping the mean streets of San Francisco clean as Dirty Harry. The Supra 'Dirty Harry' is modeled on the Skytop and features a heavy amount of hairy suede on the upper panels. The entire shoe is filled with a layer of SUPRAFOAM designed to absorb shock and make for a comfy wear. There have been *a lot* of movie-themed shoe releases lately, but the Supra 'Dirty Harry' is easily the baddest (meaning good) of the bunch. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Movie-themed Shoe Releases:** The trend of releasing shoes inspired by iconic movies has been gaining popularity, presenting an opportunity for brands to collaborate with filmmakers and tap into nostalgic consumer demand. - **Hairy Suede Design:** The use of hairy suede in shoe designs is a growing trend, providing an opportunity for brands to create unique textures and add a touch of luxury to their footwear collections. - **Comfort-focused Footwear:** The emphasis on comfort in footwear design is a rising trend, allowing brands to innovate and integrate advanced technologies for enhanced shock absorption and a more comfortable wear experience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Footwear:** The fashion footwear industry can leverage the trend of movie-themed shoe releases to attract consumers with a love for iconic films and create limited edition, collectible shoes. - **Film and Entertainment:** The film and entertainment industry can explore collaborations with footwear brands to create movie-themed shoe releases that generate buzz and connect with fans on a deeper level. - **Sportswear:** The sportswear industry can incorporate the trend of comfort-focused footwear by developing sneakers with advanced shock absorption technologies, appealing to athletes and active individuals seeking optimal performance and comfort. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cinematic Sneaker Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fast-furious-x-puma.md) - [Dynamic Collaborative Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clot-superstar.md) - [Dynamic Textural Collaborative Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thug-club-1.md) - [Stealthy Collaborative Skate Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sb-dunk-low-3.md) - [Dynamic Collaborative Bright Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clogposite-2.md) - [Low-Top 90s-Themed Co-Branded Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-darwin.md) - [Celebratory Footwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-x-west-nyc.md) - [Reimagined Sneaker Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-adidas-superstar-ii.md) - [Faux Dirty Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-1-low-dirty-triple-white.md)
