Arizona-based footwear brand High Point has reimagined [Reebok's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/club-c-85-vintage) classic [Club C](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reebok-x-harry-potter) silhouette for Valentine's Day. Leaving most of the shoe to its recognizable design, High Point has refreshed the iconic piece of footwear with two romantic colorways.

Scheduled to release the day before Valentine's Day, the newly rendered Club C comes in the consumer's choice of two new color options. The special release offers a vibrant red iteration as well as a pale pink execution. Each version of the brand new Club C tennis shoe features tonal uppers, white leather lining and matching rubber soles which bring out the premium nubuck construction.

The kicks are finished off with matching cotton laces and subtle -- yet very attractive -- Arizona-like sun ray debossing at the heel.
