About the original
The Nite Ize DoohicKey SkullKey is a stainless steel key tool cast in a 3D skull profile, packing a scoring point, bottle opener, file, serrated edge, and #2 flathead screwdriver into a body that rides on a keyring. Rick Case started Nite Ize in Boulder, Colorado in 1989 with a headband that strapped a Maglite to a skier's forehead, and the company has since shipped more than 1,000 inventions; DoohicKey is its everyday-carry keychain line. The SkullKey carries no blade, so it clears airport security, and Nite Ize lists it at $11.99. Supreme's Fall/Winter 2026 collab is the identical stamping — same cast skull, same five functions — with a box logo printed on the shaft.
About Nite Ize
Nite Ize is an American outdoor accessories company founded in 1989 by Rick Case in Boulder, Colorado. Case started the company as a University of Colorado undergraduate with a $1,500 family loan after a Grand Teton winter ascent inspired him to convert a Mini Maglite into a hands-free headlamp using an elastic Headband Mini Flashlight Holder. Nite Ize has since launched over 1,000 original inventions, including the S-Biner double-gated carabiner, Gear Tie reusable rubber twist tie, Figure 9 rope tightener, and Financial Tool wallet multi-tool. The company remains independent and headquartered in Boulder. Supreme collaborated with Nite Ize on co-branded carabiners and small carry hardware.
