Shaquille O’Neal Presents a Special Shaq Attaq with Reebok

— February 21, 2024 — Pop Culture
Legendary athlete and personality Shaquille O'Neal creates a custom version of the Reebok Shaq Attaq sneaker with the help of the Shoe Surgeon. It is designed with an integrated Pepsi Mini can -- as a result, the trio presents the Pepsi SNEAK’ER.

He wore the shoes during the All-Star Weekend recently. It's defined by a custom colorway of electric blue and black with paint splatters on the outsole. The Pepsi pattern is also decorated along the insole and it is secured with custom blue laces simultaneously referencing Shaq's first team with the Orlando Magic. The most notable feature is the leather chamber meant to hold a Pepsi Mini can.

Shaquille O’Neal, President of Basketball at Reebok notes “Pepsi has been a core part of my career since the moment I joined the NBA. My partnership with Pepsi means so much to me because we’re always out here having fun, innovating, and bringing the noise. Now, I’m pumped that I never have to be without my Pepsi Mini Cans.”

From now through Feb 25th, 22 fans will get the chance to obtain one of the 22 Pepsi SNEAK’ERs by posting a photo or video online to showcase their love of the drink using the hashtag #PepsiMinis #Sweepstakes.
