[Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instapump-fury-94) works in collaboration with [Maison Margiela](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instapump-fury-4) on an elevated pack of the sneaker as the duo launch three new models to the Memory Of collection for the season. The two are expanding on the existing pack as it adds the [Instapump](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/noir-kei) Fury Memory Of, the Question Memory Of, and finally, the Zig 3D Storm Memory Of.

The shoes are updated with a figurative design language that is told through deconstructed language. The Instapump has a subtle streak as the bridges that are usually at the middle hole of the shoe now move closer to the back and the bladder is chunkier than usual. The second sneakers are made from tumbled leather materials throughout the upper and the Zig 3D Storm Memory Of has a printed shell and graphics.
