# Basketball Contest-Themed Sneakers Reebok Gives the Pump Omni Zone II Sneaker a Parquet Court Look By Amy Duong | Published 2022-04-14 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parquet-court References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2022/4/reebok-pump-omni-zone-ii-parquet-court-gx3779-release-date) & [reebok](https://www.reebok.com/us/pump-omni-zone-ii-men-s-basketball-shoes/GX3779.html) [Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bb-4000-li-basketball-shoes) unveils a new Parquet Court colorway that decorates its Pump Omni Zone II sneaker model. The palette is a direct celebration of the 1991 NBA Slam Dunk Contest and Dee Brown's famous no-look dunk. The palette is inspired by the athlete's time with the [Boston Celtics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-beast-and-nba) during that season and the signature hues of the 19-time champions detail the [basketball sneaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ja-2-2). This can be seen in the green mesh that adorns the lace loops, the tongues, and the quarter sections. It is offset by the white side cages for a touch of contrast and black makes up most of the base foundation with leather paneling and the laces as well. The pump buttons are detailed in orange to resemble a basketball.
