Continuing with their ongoing series of artist designed collaborations, Supreme has looked to American artist and photographer Marilyn Minter to create a series of skate decks by the controversial artist. Her rise to prominence started in 1989 where her debut show was inspired by hardcore pornography drawing a barrage of criticism from feminists. However, Minter continued on utilizing pornographic imagery and beauty advertisements together. The decks will release April 10th in New York and Los Angeles (April 17th online) while Japan will see an April 12th release.

The Red Devil Laser Etched skate deck was originally created in limited quantities for the "Rust in Peace" art exhibition in Los Angeles featuring Stash and Slick. A small quantity is now available online. The laser etched Red Devil graphic is complimented with a natural wood finish. Available for sale at Recon with a price set at $150 USD.

The New Orleans inspired decks are suitable only as wall-art which seems like a consistent trend these days. Available directly though Structure NOLA. Source: Complex

Typical skateboard deck graphics are screen printed or heat transferred. Alphanumeric went a step further and used a new hi gloss treatment giving the deck an amazing shine effect.
