Reebok Pump Omni Lite - “Chapter Limited”
|
Although the Reebok Pump Omni Lite “Dee Brown” landed a spot in our 10 Sneakers We’re Most Thankful For Returning in ‘08, we have spotted three exclusive colorways of this classic Reebok sneaker. Designed by Japanese sneaker boutique Chapter World, The Reebok Pump Omni - “Chapter Limited” was created in three colorways: Brown/Green (orange shoelaces), Grey/Black (yellow shoelaces), and Blue/White. The Brown/Green colorway seems very outdoor-inspired. Nevertheless it possesses the color scheme perfect for the winter seasons. The other two pair seem more subtle yet still very stylish. Check out more detailed picks of each colorway after the jump. Via Chapter Select. |
Reebok Pump Omni Lite “1991″ Dee Brown - Reverse Colorway
 In February 2008, Reebok re-released Dee Brown’s classic Reebok Pump Omni Lite. If you recall, those were the sneakers Brown did the no-look dunk in en route to winning the 1991 Slam Dunk Contest. We have now spotted a reverse colorway of this classic sneaker at Sneaker Bistro.
This shoe features a predominately white upper with black and orange accents on the side panels, outsole, and tongue. The infamous pump that Dee pumped before his dunk is orange as well. Just like the official colorway, this sneaker is limited to only 1,991 pair (symbolizing the year he won the Dunk Contest). More pics after the jump. |
Reebok Ventilator “Cafe Con Leche”
 The Reebok Ventilator is an often overlooked running silhouette, that seems to only get better with time. The latest version, the Reebok Ventilator “Cafe Con Leche” is another in a long list of the classic runner that should not go unnoticed.
The Ventilator gets its the name from the mesh venting system that does wonders to keep you feet nice and cool. This “Cafe Con Leche” colorway features black and beige, with green and purple accent colors. With the speckled sole and Hexalite cushioning you can’t wrong with these. If you haven’t added a pair of Ventilators to your collection, maybe it’s time to wake up and smell the coffee, or rather, the “Cafe Con Leche.” Available now at Overkill. |

Reebok 2008 Christmas Theme Pack
|
This Winter, Reebok will be wishing you a Merry Christmas with a couple of our most memorable tales through two of its classic sneakers. The Reebok Court Victory Pump takes inspiration from the classic story of Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer. The upper features a brown suede representing Rudolph’s fur; however, the most interesting feature is the red pump located on the tongue representing his infamous shiny nose. The Reebok Pump Omni Lite is inspired by the horrific Abominable Snowman. This sneaker features a white/blue upper to represent the snow and ice; yet, the most intriguing design is the creature’s fur located on the heel and inner lining. Each shoe also features a picture of its respective character on the insoles (shown after the jump). Check your local Reebok retailers for these timeless story-themed sneakers on November 26th, 2008. Check out more detailed pics after the jump. Via Hypebeast. |
Reebok Pump Running Dual
 We have spotted an exclusive colorway of the Reebok Pump Running Dual over at Cali Roots. Reebok sneakers have always been known to sport the vivid, neon colors, and this sneakers defines that to the fullest.
The upper features many colors including neon green, neon yellow, turquoise and white. The shiny toe mesh on the front of the sneaker is navy blue. The pump system is visible on both sides of the sneaker as well. Nonetheless, it is a typical yet eye-catching Reebok sneaker. Did Reebok bring a nice retro look to this sneaker or is it too simplistic? Check out in-depth pictures of this Reebok Pump Running Dual after the jump! |
Throwback Thursday: Reebok Kamikaze II
 A brief while ago we listed the Top 10 Signature Basketball Lines where Shawn Kemp snuck his way onto the list thanks in large part to this shoe - the Reebok Kamikaze II. Following the success of The Pump that first made its way to Reebok basketball sneakers in 1989, the brand did have some successful years between the days of the Pump and DMX (which came with the Reebok Answer I). The Kamikaze II featured the lightweight and quite comfortable Reebok Hexalite cushioning in the heel and forefoot.
Shawn Kemp experienced what many would argue to be his best season in 1995-96 averaging a double-double, putting up 19.6 points per game while snatching 11.4 rebounds. Kemp made his way to the 1996 NBA All Star Game and lead the Sonics to the NBA Finals but fell victim to the 72-10 regular season Chicago Bulls. Reebok bought back the Kamikaze a few years ago in disappointing fashion with an added Pump that was not on the original and little-to-no marketing to support its release. One can only hope that Reebok will grant us a return of the Kamikaze II, but for now we will have to just sit, wait, and beg. |
