Reebok is joined by outdoor label Mountain Research on a new iteration of the Beatnik silhouette for the colder seasons ahead. The shoe is updated with elements that are true to the Japanese imprint as the sandals are inspired by hiking boots from the early 2000s.
Instead of the usual canvas material, the shoes are made from smooth brown leather material and detailed with embroidered flame graphics on the lateral and medial sides of the shoe. This is then met with color-blocking details in the form of white and yelling stitching. Rounding out the designs are the darker accents that can be seen in the form of the black straps and it all sits on top of a toothy sole unit.
