[Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reebok-x-white-mountaineering1) launches its new Outdoors capsule featuring new and updated iterations of the [Beatnik](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hemp-club-c-revenge-and-beatnik-slide-for-fall) sandals. The [mule design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-mule-2) is offered in three new colorway options that are designed with inspiration from nature itself. It includes Surplus and Arctic palettes, which launched last month and to round out the Outdoors capsule, the sportswear brand finishes it with the new Ultramarine colorway.

This is inspired by the hues of water, Surplus is inspired by grassland, and finally, Arctic is inspired by the clean arctic snow. Each show is complete with a quilted upper that is made from M65 military liner jackets. All of this sits on top of a rugged outsole unit foundation and both straps are complete in black.
