If you are a frequent reader of this site, it would probably not take too much to convince you that sneaker design is actually an artform, but this new pack from Reebok pushes that idea to a new level. The new Koi Nobori Freestyle pack uses beautifully painted illustrations on the uppers of each sneaker to help celebrate the Japanese holiday of Tango no Sekku, a traditional day where people create carp-inspired wind socks each May. This collection of Freestyles each features fish eyes, scales and gills and will undoubtedly be a conversation starter for whoever wears a pair. The Koi Nobori Freestyle is available in four women’s colorways, red, blue, green and black, all with a white fleece lining. If you are a follower of this Japanese custom or you just dig these crazy designs, the entire collection is available now at RS Store. Via HighSnobiety.
