Montreal skate imprint JJJJound works in collaboration alongside sportswear brand [Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/club-c-85-3) on its own iteration of the [Club C](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/not-guilty-capsule) sneaker model for the season. The shoes are set to join the roster made for the Fall/Winter 2023 season and it dives into earthy tones.

The most notable element of this collaboration is found in the fabrication as the shoes are made from a soft and slightly washed-out nubuck material, which really shines on the form and structure of the shoes. It also has a muted look throughout due to the tonal design and offers a humble look that is versatile for any outfit. The branding can be seen on the lateral side of the shoe in a subtle manner due to the tonal design.
