Jovani Hernandez A BATHING APE and Reebok aren’t strangers to each other, having closed out 2020 with a highly-limited iteration of the latter’s tennis-inspired classic. For their latest proposition, however, the brands have teamed up again on none other than the Reebok Instapump Fury.
As with previous joint-efforts from the storied streetwear pioneer, BAPE’s latest project indulges in a bold, mismatched arrangement. The company’s iconic APE HEAD camouflage pattern covers the entirety of the model’s synthetic and fabric upper, with central overlays opting for green (right shoe) and blue (left shoe) makeups. One of the brand’s most recognizable logos lands on the PUMP system’s button, while “BAPE STA” text reworked with Reebok’s vector symbol is embroidered at the spine. Underfoot, the upper’s multi-color flair is omitted, instead proposing a clean white and black combination that allows for the top-half to revel in the spotlight.
An expansive Reebok.com release date hasn’t been disclosed, but this collaborative pair is set to launch at select European retailers today, August 31st. In any case, enjoy official images of the shoes ahead.
In other sneaker news, the New Balance 550 has recently appeared in handfuls of new styles.
