Limited Edt. x Reebok Workout 25th Anniversary

Although the human body has difficulty assimilating energy from the calories in alcohol, the carbohydrate-laden drinks in which its often served and the nutritionally poor choices for munchies many make while imbibing, make drinking and looking fit an almost impossible match. Leave it to a couple of designers at a Singaporean sneaker boutique to crack the code on how to bring fitness and fermentation together, the new Limited Edt x Reebok Workout having been inspired by the Tiger Beer bottle’s aesthetic around the time of the Workout’s 1987 debut. The upper has been enhanced with a gradient that imitates the fizz of carbonation as well as a tiger-striped insole, while the shoe’s colors are a direct match to both the bottle and a special edition box that’s a first for this Workout 25th anniversary capsule. There are still two more pairs to be revealed before the global launch on February 15th, so check out Limited Edt‘s efforts and stick with Sneaker News for more.

Kasina x Reebok Workout 25th Anniversary

Aaron Hope — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:30:16 +0000

We’re coming up on the global launch of the Workout 25th Anniversary next week, so before we get completely engulfed by the NBA All-Star buildup, let’s examine the remaining revelations from this 15-pair super-set. The Kasina x Reebok Workout takes the dignified approach that so many of these understated collabortations have offered, but manages to stand out from a largely sueded pack thanks to the use of a dark tweed upper. This multicolored woolen upper looks fantastic next to walnut brown leather accents and a white sole, but are they better than SNS’ equally clean brown leather look? Click through to examine more images of the Kasina Workout 25 so you can see how these rank against the rest of the capsule, and expect them all at retailers around the globe on February 15th.

Beatnic x Reebok Workout 25th Anniversary

The OG Insta Pump Fury debuted in 1993 with one of Reebok’s most memorable colorways, its blend of black, red and Citron among the more distinct even for a period known for its classic looks. The one style that’s arguably more strongly associated with RBK would be their iconic grey-accented white leather CL looks like the original Reebok Workout, and this pair pictured above marks the first time we’ve seen one of its 25th anniversary collaborators utilize such an homage. The Insta Pump Fury by Fullerton, CA’s Beatnic was intended to feature a Pump add-on, but that proved infeasible so the audacious colorway was embellished with welding dots on the toecap and heel counter to suggest pressurized air. Are these the most interesting Workout 25s we’ve seen so far? Stay tuned for the final four revelations and let us know which one’s best when you click through to see more angles of the BTNC edition.

Aaron Hope — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:30:54 +0000

While it’s great to see a world-encircling list of sneaker boutiques try their hand at designing 25th anniversary pairs for the classic Reebok Workout, there’s no doubt that this model’s OG will remain its most famous look. So you can slap wild colors and materials on it or borrow a signature aesthetic from other veterans, but at the end of the day, nothing says ‘Workout’ like white leather. In that sense, the atmos x Reebok Workout is the closest to this model’s essence, although a quick trip out after sundown will confirm that these were in fact created by one of Tokyo’s best. Daytime gives you the iconic look, but at night you’ll pick up on the store’s signature glow-in-the-dark construction for a release that perfectly reflects both its source and scribes; are these the single best Workout 25 out of the entire set? A few more shots await your click on the jump below, and be sure to stick with Sneaker News for five more revelations from the Workout Plus’ 25th Anniversary mega-pack before the February 15th global launch.

Foot Patrol x Reebok Workout 25th Anniversary

Aaron Hope — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 15:00:34 +0000

The Reebok Workout’s 25th Anniversary celebration has shown us that this classic trainer can manifest in as many unique personalities as the globally noteworthy boutiques that jumped on board this fairly large collaborative capsule. And while the variety ensures something for everyone, it’s hard to argue that the suede pairs have been among the most impressive. Whether rocking an easily identifyable theme like the mita sneakers-penned workboot look or just going for elegant simplicity as in the case of Packer Shoes’ burgundy build, one could convincingly argue with evidence like the above pictured design that this model best known for its white/grey leather OGs might do its best work in a rougher texture. This Foot Patrol Workout 25 goes with a super-nappy grey suede whose combination with a gum sole is saved from being a simplified microcosm of the past couple years of lifestyle kicks, thanks to the choice of a yellow lace that echoes the tongue tag. The London boutique will see their 25th Anny Workouts drop on February 15th along with the other fourteen collabo designs, so click through to see more from Foot Patrol’s pair and stick with Sneaker News for updates.
