Reebok has revealed its latest rapper-collaborative leather sneakers with Puerto Rican music artist Anuel AA called the Classic Leather '1983 Vintage.' The sneakers pay tribute to the Anuel AA's home island of Puerto Rico. Additionally, the sneakers are inspired by the Caribbean sky.
The Classic Leather '1983 Vintage' sneakers arrive in white leather uppers with black overlays across the mudguard, heel counter, and tongue tabs. The sneakers have the motorsport-inspired 'A" logo branding on the heel tabs. The flag of Puerto Rico also replaces the United Kingdom flag on the lateral window cutouts. The sneakers have metallic side stripes, and the tongue tab has sky-blue-colored branding and piping. In addition, the sneakers have white molded EVA midsoles, Hexalite cushioning, and black rubber soles. The sneakers will be available on April 25.
