I am seeing stripes everywhere after staring at the Reebok Insta Pump Fury 'Year of the Tiger'. Usually I could care less about the Instapump and Year of the Tiger-themed footwear, but these shoes look surprisingly kickass.
The black stripes against the red backdrop immediately pulled me in. The Chinese characters on the shoe only make me want this shoe more. Hell, I'd probably buy the Reebok Insta Pump Fury 'Year of the Tiger' just to get this box that they come in.
