When it comes to leather, calfskin or lambskin is the standard, but the [Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reebok-x-white-mountaineering) Workout 25th Anniversary Collection goes for a more game-y approach.

The Reebok Workout 25th Anniversary Collection is actually a collaborative effort with Sneakernstuf. For inspiration, the two have looked towards a very common animal in the Swedish woods: the moose. The entire upper is made from quality [moose leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-croc), which is an interesting choice that produces the same slick results. Aside from the material, the sneaker is fairly low-key with a [simple tonal look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skope-black-leather). The white provides a bit of subtle contrast to the shoe as well.

With Reebok releasing numerous models of the Kamikaze sneakers, it's nice to see the brand go simple and casual.
