Jean-Michel Basquiat X Reebok Top Down models

Reebok continues their tribute collections to the late great Jean-Michel Basquiat with a couple of new sneaker releases showcasing the sportswear brand’s Top Down model. The kicks are given the Basquiat treatment with the use of the artists signature paintings printed on the uppers and contrasted with leather accents. The release is just a part of the Fall 2009 Collection which will see further inspired kicks. Both are now available via colette. I really loved the Julian Schnabel directed Basquiat bio-pic that came out '96 starring Jeffrey Wright as the titular artist/empresario. I still watch that film whenever it shows up on TV.

Reebok Court Force Victory & Pump Omni Lite

A new Reebok Court Victory Pump and Pump Omni Lite is about to be released. They come in a nice summer colorway, turquoise/orange/ white. I like the color combos on these sneakers. The design stays clean and crisp with great little flourishes like the checkerboard design. All in all a nice colorway for the summer.

XLarge Japan stores will be releasing the sneaker on June 20th.

Sneakers N Stuff x Reebok SNS 5000


Sneakers N Stuff from Stockholm ,is at it again and developed together with Reebok the SNS 5000.

"About a year ago Sneakers n Stuff released a sneaker that was inspired by the traditional settlers of Sweden - the Sámi people.

Now they have continued their journey through Sweden and it’s traditions and next stop is Dalecarlia. A province in the middle of Sweden best known for the Dalecarlian horse or “Dalahästen” as they say in Sweden. A wooden horse painted with a teqnique called kurbits. The horse first got carved in Sweden in the 17th century as a toy for children.

In 1939 the Dalecarlian horse represented Sweden at the New York World’s Fair and since then the horse has been a very strong symbol for the country." Via Solebox Blog.

The sneaker will be released on July 25th, is limited to 300 pairs worldwide, and will go for 110 Euros.

Reebok Reverse Jam

With a neon pink upper, yellow accents and a speckled mid-sole, the Reebok Sport Pack Reverse Jam sports one of the most aggressive color-ways of summer '08. Of course DJ Lazy is feelin' the flamboyant colors but I'm really postin' this for my man Mr. Mess who loves ta rock the Reeboks. Samples of the shoe have been floating around for a while, but confirmation of a near release (this month) has now surfaced. (via complex)

Reebok Court Force Victory Pump "Glow In The Dark"



Finally the Reebok Court Victory Pump Glow-In-The-Dark has dropped.

The sneaker comes in a very simple and subtle design, with a white/green upper. When you see it at first you cannot even imagine what it can actually do. Because they did not just cover the entire upper with Glow-In-The-Dark material, they actually made an invisible pattern on the upper that only comes out in the dark.

The idea is pretty cool and the outcome at least from these pictures also looks great. Atmos Tokyo now has them in stock. I have almost never had any interest in Reebok sneakers. I never felt they had quality materials or concepts. I still think they could use better material but this is an awesome shoe idea!
