Source: Reebok / Reebok After dropping a Ghostbusters themed collection and Cardi B collaboration, Reebok is taking it back to 1991 and pays homage to Slam Dunk champion, Dee Brown. On March 5th, Reebok will be re-releasing their classic Pump Omni Zone II’s that Brown pumped up on the sideline before rocking his no-look jam that made him the ’91 Slam Dunk champion.

Master P & Baron Davis Interested In Buying Reebok From adidas For $2.4B
Source: REEBOK / Reebok With Nike and adidas basically reigning supreme in the sports attire arena of the game, it looks like Reebok’s about to undergo a major change. Their parent company, adidas, is looking to cut ties with the struggling OG sneaker brand and keep it moving, sparking interest from known entities. According to Forbes, the German sportswear company has decided to put Reebok on the market due to the lack of interest the brand has garnered over the years, but don’t expect the home of Shaquille O’Neal’s signature Shaqnosis’s silhouette to come cheaply either. Even with the struggles that Reebok has experienced over the decades on the street market (can’t resell a pair of Reebok’s to save your life out here), the asking price for the company is said to hover around a cool $2.4...
Cardi B Quickly Apologizes After She Was Accused of “Mocking” Hindu Goddess Durga
Source: REEBOK / Reebok Cardi B was having herself a good ass week until she dropped one particular photo that made many folks mad at her. Things went left immediately for Bardi after she unveiled her new sneaker collection with Reebok in a cover feature with Footwear News. The news of Cardi’s new kicks was swiftly met with backlash becuase the cover photo featured the “Bodak Yellow’ taking cues from the Hindu goddess Durga giving her 10 arms while holding a pair of the new sneakers. Tweets accusing Cardi of disrespecting Hindu culture and calling for her to immediately apologize began to hit social media. One Twitter user wrote: “Cardi b did not pay “homage” to the Hindu goddess Durga by holding a shoe in her hand, this is plain disrespect and in no way cultural ap...

adidas Is Prepared To Sell Their Reebok Brand, Allegedly
Source: Reebok/adidas / Reebok/adidas While some choice pairs of Reeboks are seen on feet here and there (see: AI’s The Question, for example), it certainly isn’t on the level of must-have footwear as say Nike, Jordan or adidas. That being said, it’s looking like adidas might be looking to unload that “dead weight” (no shots) and on the cusp of selling the brand that introduced the world to the Reebok Pump and focus entirely on the three stripes. According to Highsnobiety (via Manager Magazin), Reebok is about to get moved like a brick of stale Mary Jane as adidas is planning on selling their sportswear company by March of 2021. Apparently, adidas’ Kasper Rørsted had hoped to revive the Reebok brand when he was appointed CEO back in 2016, but things didn’t go as planned and the brand has s...

Reebok Bringing Back The OG “Kamikaze II”
Source: Jerritt Clark / Getty Michael Jordan‘s Jumpman logo is probably the most famous image of a slam dunk in progress around the world. But, the Seattle Supersonics’ Shawn Kemp was a rim rockin’ beast himself during the Jordan era, and now Reebok is bringing back one of Kemp’s most popular silhouettes, The Kamikaze II. According to Hypebeast, Reebok will be bringing back the classic 1990s sneaker later in October and will be joining a few re-releases of the era such as the Shaquille O’Neal-worn “Shaqnosis” and Allen Iverson-sponsored “Question Mid” models. We’re lowkey surprised they waited this long to retro all these classics. Though the sneakers will remain the same as it’s OG version, Reebok is making an unexpected change that no one really saw coming. From Reebok: As mentione...

Allen Iverson Is Set To Collect A 32 Million Payout From Reebok In 2030
Source: photo: WENN While he has been off the court for many years Allen Iverson’s name still holds a lot of weight in the sneaker game. He has secured the bag thanks to his apparel sponsor. Page Six is reporting that the basketball legend is in for a very cozy retirement thanks to Reebok. The online gossip rag claims that the former Georgetown Hoya is set to receive a $32 million dollar trust fund payment due to his lifetime contract with the Boston based company. Business analyst Darren Rovell claims that the paperwork in question has specific clauses that speak to a vesting option that both parties mutually agreed to back when AI originally signed the agreement in 2001. “Allen Iverson turns 45 today. Ten years from today, on his 55th birthday, he receives a $32 million trust fund a...
Cancel Alert: CrossFit CEO Tweets Racist Remark, Reeboks Ends Partnership
Source: Reebok / Reebok When will brands learn that any slick talk concerning our people or plight will not be tolerated? One company got a swift reminder last week. As spotted on High Snobiety the CEO of CrossFit showed his true colors when he responded to a post from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation saying “Racism and discrimination are critical public health issues that demand an urgent response. #BlackLivesMatter”. To which Greg Glassman said “It’s FLOYD-19”. Naturally his response left a very sour taste in many people’s mouths; regardless of gender or race. So much so the tweet went viral causing some of the fitness league’s partners to act accordingly. It’s FLOYD-19. — Greg Glassman (@CrossFitCEO) June 6, 2020 According to The Morning Chalk Up Ree...
Reebok Trolls Michael Jordan For His 1992 Olympics Snub
Source: Dimitri Iundt / Getty If you’ve been tuning into ESPN’s smash docu-series The Last Dance for the past few weeks you’d come to appreciate the new pieces of interesting information that’s been disclosed which have been kept secret for decades that may not mean much now but would’ve been a big deal in the 90’s. From Horace Grant possibly dropping dime on MJ’s “Republicans buy sneakers too” political stance to Dennis Rodman’s invention of the whole notion of “management load,” the series is as revealing as can be. But one pretty interesting nugget of information seems to have rubbed Reebok the wrong way. Viewers learned that during the 1992 Olympics gold medal ceremonies, Michael Jordan absolutely refused to be seen wearing his Reebok branded USA outfit on stage and instead he opted to...
