By now, Sneaker News readers are fully aware of the fact that this year marks the Nike Air Force 1′s 30th anniversary, but let’s be careful not to forget another icon of 1980s style celebrating a monumental birthday of its own in 2012. The Reebok Workout Plus is classic ‘aerobics’-era design, a time when people somehow thought that dancing in place and eating low fat foods prescribed by a deck of color-coded cards could somehow get you looking like Arnold. And with this being the time when so many have resolved to lose weight, Solebox founder Hikmet Soeger competing against his brother Sükret in a ‘biggest loser’ style competition makes the fishscale theme of Solebox’ Workout Plus one of the most tightly wound themes in recent memory (especially considering that these kinds of challenges are widely considered unhealthy, even when compared to the aforementioned historical blunders). We’ve come to expect nothing less when Solebox collaborates on a sneaker release, but will you buy this first of fifteen Workout Plus collabos scheduled for the 25th birthday year?
Nice material, but they are Workouts & the only colors that do them justice are all black or all white!
Reebok... quit trying...
you better not consider yourself a sneakerhead fool
are you serious? im not saying i don't respect Reeboks legacy and what theyve done for the sneaker world. At the same time.. look at what theyve been releasing lately.. a bunch of gay ass trainers. The only thing they have is their OG shit. Classics, Pumps, Ventilators... etc. So don't question me please. i know what the fuck i'm talking about.
