Remember when all the rage was that silly pump in your shoes that, according to the commercials, would make you jump higher and win more games? In reality all it did was tighten the shoe around your foot. It is back with the [Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instapump-fury-3) 20th Anniversary Pump with Espionage.

Think the old-school Pump, but with a super rad twist. The upper is made out of a [carbon fiber material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instapump-fury-5), and the mid has some [glow-in-the-dark features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vomero-5-1) for a badass nighttime effect. Check out the gallery for more shots of the Reebok 20th Anniversary Pump edition.
