Recently, Garbstore and [Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reebok-x-white-mountaineering1) teamed up to create a [collection of apparel and footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasures-and-reebok-1) that's geared towards commuters.

Included are matching hoodies and sweatpants, [lightweight weather-resistant jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/welterweight-sweats) and a variety of sneakers. The sweats are offered in navy, red and black, and feature a unique take on Reebok's former logo. Rather than the using the brand's traditional design that consists of interconnecting shapes, the version that was created with Garbstore features just one of these components and the word "ok" instead of the sportswear brand's name.

The lightweight jackets are void of any statement branding however and the sneakers make use of subdued colorways for a neutral aesthetic. Currently, the whole collection can be purchased from Garbstore's web shop.
