As part of its Fall/Winter 2015 collection, New York skatewear brand Supreme is releasing several pairs of [Doc Martens x Supreme shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-palace) in a never-before-seen color choice.

The Supreme shoes are a [collaborative effort with Doc Martens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-awake-ny), and will feature both brand logos. Under Supreme's design influence, the iconic shoe of punk subculture is getting a makeover. The Supreme shoes will come in oxblood and black -- standard Doc Martens colors -- but they will also be available in a unique, 70s-inspired baby blue. The blue colorway caused a lot of excitement when it first appeared in the Supreme Fall/Winter 2015 lookbook.

Aside from the completely original color choice, the Supreme shoes will be pretty much identical to [classic Doc Martens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-leather-boot), with a polished but notoriously edgy look. They will be available in the 4-Eye Shoe and 6-Eye Boot styles.
