Monochromatic 90s-Themed Footwear

Reebok's Pump Omni Zone II Sneakers Gets a Minimal Design

— May 5, 2021 — Fashion
Reebok unveils a new tonal iteration of the OG Pump Omni Zone II sneaker model with the 'Chalk' colorway. The retro design is prepared for the courts and for lifestyle wearing. The palette also references past eras, nodding to the 90s and the prominent sneaker models of the time.

The upper is made from two materials, with the Chalk tonal leather and a darker navy blue mesh material for textural contrast. The shoe keeps the basketball-themed Pump button true to the brand, which can be found on the tongue. The shoes midfoot has waved overlays that travel all the way to the eye stays, leading to more branding at the heel unit. The heel section has a colorful Hexalite embroidery for a cushioned comfort.
