Reebok Answer IV

Released: 2000
Worn By: Allen Iverson

Even though zip-up closure was still very present in 2000, it felt new and different on the Reebok Answer IV. Perhaps it was because of the buzz around AI or maybe it was because this pair relied on leather. Either way, this shoe was as much a commercial hit as any other silo in the bunch, with the zipper reappearing on the sixth and tenth installments of the Answer line.
