Vibrant Suede Sneakers

The Snipes x Reebok Collaboration Reworks a Classic

The SNIPES x Reebok collaboration concerns itself with revamping the sneaker brand's 'Classic Leather' silhouette.

The Germain retailer updated the sneaker with vibrant colors. It's interesting to observe how the captivating crimson hue interacts with the bold blues and yellows. These arresting shades are counterbalanced by the neutral presence of beige, which is featured on the sole, laces and upper, front part of the shoe.

In terms of materials, the shoe is constructed out of supple suede, giving it an effortless (yet luxurious) look and feel. As is the case with many premium sneakers, wearers aren't forced to choose between style and comfort. The collaboration is a way for fans to continue to enjoy the Classic Leather silhouette in a brand new way.
