Trading Card-Inspired Sneakers

Panini America Joins Reebok On the Question Mid Sneaker

— September 13, 2022 — Lifestyle
Trading card company Panini America joins forces with Reebok as the two launches a special design iteration of the signature Question Mid sneaker model. The shoes are inspired by trading cards and are made from traditional white leather at the base of the upper.

This is also paired with mesh to add some breathability. It is then detailed with blue and black tiger stripes to add some contrast to the toe boxes and mudguard sections. It is packaged together with the hang tags that spell out "Rookie Shoe" to nod to the overarching theme. Originally a basketball shoe, it is now also perfect for lifestyle wearing as well. It is rounded out by the traditional PRIZM branding in metallic silver at the collars.
