Undefeated X Reebok Pump Fury - ‘The Running Man Pack’

Undefeated Reebok Pump Fury 'The Running Man Pack'

Reebok and streetwear shop Undefeated have collaborated to form a three-sneaker pack dubbed ‘The Running Man’. It contains the Reebok Pump Fury in three different colorways: Gold, Silver, and Black.

These Reebok Pump Fury’s feature a combination of patent leather and mesh on the upper with rainbow-colored accents on the midsole and inner lining. The gold colorway reminds us of Michael Johnson’s signature gold shoes in the 1996 Olympics.

Obviously, the Undefeated influence is visible, and you can definitely use this as a very eye-catching running shoe. Question is…will you be in a hurry to snag The Running Man Pack when it drops? View pics of each sneaker after the jump provided by High Snobiety.

Reebok Sir Jam Mid Retro White

Reebok Sir Jam Mid Retro White/Black/YellowThe Reebok Sir Jam Mid Retro has arrived at Caliroots.

The Sir Jam returns from it’s early 90’s origin in a nice new colorway. This colorway of the classic Reebok basketball silhouette, is a mostly white upper with black, yellow and orange accent colors. It also features that splatter print that was so popular in the early 90’s. Performance comes from the Hexalite technology, and PlayDry technology that helps keep your feet cool and dry.

I gotta give it up to Reebok for bringing back this classic in a nice, simple colorway. It’s about time they moved away from the board game and powdered drink themed kicks.

Lots of nice photos after the jump.

Throwback Thursday: Reebok Instapump Match Low

Reebok Instapump Match LowWhen the topic of tennis sneakers comes up, Andre Aggassi tends to dominate many conversations with his line of shoes worked up by Nike, but one tennis champ that should not be cut out is Michael Chang. At the young age of 16 Chang turned pro winning his first and only Grand Slam at the age of 17. For the rest of his career he was near the top winning 34 tournaments in total. Back to the footwear though, Chang had arguably Reebok’s best series of tennis shoes. Though none of the shoes ever officially had his name on the products or box, he was the face of Reebok Tennis.

The series of outstanding sneakers worn by Chang began with the Reebok Court Victory Pump, followed by the Court Victory II, but in the 1993-94 tennis season Chang took the court (grass, clay, and carpet) in the Instapump Match. The early days of Reebok Pump required one to manually “pump” their shoes with air, but the Instapump utilized CO2 cartridges and a high tech valve where one could instantly pump up their kicks.

Not messing around with one’s comfort or performance, the Instapump Match Low featured three different air chambers giving one the most custom fit. Reebok also added full length soft EVA midsole, Hexalite cushioned heel, and Goodyear engineered Indy 500 rubber outsole giving ultimate grip and longevity.

Michael Chang also wore a mid cut version of this shoe, but it is so different that you will need to tune into Throwback Thursday at a later date to get a glimpse of that one.  Enjoy pics of the kicks after the jump.

Reebok Abominable Snowman Pump Omni Lite

Reebok Abominable Snowman Pump Omni LiteThe Reebok Abominable Snowman Pump Omni Lite is a new release from Reebok using “The Bumble” for inspiration.

After seeing the Monopoly Pack, and the Beetlejuice Reeboks, using the Abominable Snow Monster of the North for inspiration comes as no surprise. I can’t say I’d ever own these, but I have to give it up for creativity. Perfect timing for the winter months, and everyone’s favorite holiday tv movie, Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer. These furry kicks will keep your feet nice and warm.

I wonder if we’ll see a Rudolph edition or a Hermey the Misfit Elf version before the holidays gets here.

These are available now for $110 at Premier Boutique.
