The Instapump Fury Sneakers created as a result of a collaboration between retailer OFFSPRING and athletic brand Reebok opts for a lace-free sneaker design that uses a pump system to lock the shoes in place. The technology features a touch button that wearer's can press once slipping the shoes on, that suctions the shoe to the wearer's foot for a customized fit.
The contemporary aesthetic of the Instapump Fury Sneakers is futuristic and bold making use of monochromatic white and black shades complete with a texturized mesh upper complete with rubber detailing. Rather than opting for cumbersome shoe string that needs to be laced, the sneakers opt for a pump closure that fastens the shoe with the touch of a button. This allows wears to quickly slip on the shoe, without the hassle of tying them.
