Swizz Beatz isn’t the only hip-hop figure riding with the Reebok revival that we’re currently in the midst of. There’s also Tyga, who has landed his own pair of signature sneakers as a result, and dudes like Rick Ross and DJ Khaled. Ross in particular has been pretty enthusiastic about the brand as of late, taking to Instagram on a regular basis to show off the most recent pairs he’s been blessed with. Here both Southern hip-hop heavyweights show off the upcoming Reebok Kamikaze II in the ‘Red Flash’ colorway. Hit the jump for the photos and check back soon for the official shots from the Reebok Classics shoot.

There are more Reebok Kamikaze II colorways waiting in the wing from the Reebok Classics team. Also set to be brought back is the straight up black and white colorway and a flash red version, both of which are original colorways. The Reebok Kamikaze II seems poised to be this year’s answer to last year’s Question craze (although no word yet on whether not they’ll be getting the collaborative touch), a notion that will be tested come this second set of releases. Hit the jump to get some high res shots of the pairs and swing by Packer Shoes (or give them a call) to place a pre-order for the February 1st releases right now.

Iverson, Shaq, and Kemp – the three most recognizable stars to have represented Reebok in its performance basketball heyday – are making an incredible comeback in 2013. Iverson already laid his groundwork with the Question and Answer IV drops last year, but 2013 will be a three-pronged effort as a number of their signature models will hit stores in various OG and Retro colorways. From the Kamikaze II, an iridescent ‘Invisibility Cloak’ version as well as a neon/white/black colorway will hit stores, two Shaqnosis joints will be ready to hypnotize, and the OG Black/Red Answer 1 will arrive in the Fall 2013 season. More preview shots from Reebok Classics are just below so take a look and let us know if you’re excited for the Reebok 2013 line-up.

Jay-Z in Reeboks? Long before he stayed in Yeezys, LeBrons, and the like, that wasn’t such an uncommon site. You’ll remember that just ten years ago Jay-Z was a Reebok company man thanks to his wildly popular S. Carter collection (admit it, you bought a pair). For whatever reason, he’s back on the bandwagon, spotted here in the just released Reebok Kamikaze II. The Shawn Kemp pair isn’t too far away from the Brooklyn Nets color combo, so maybe we’ll even see them courtside sometime soon. Continue reading for the shots of Jay-Z in the Reebok Kamikaze II and stay tuned to see if Jigga continues to diversify in 2013.

The return of the Reebok Kamikaze II just got a little bit more relevant with the recent rumors that Seattle might be getting an NBA squad once again. Whether or not they’d be rechristened as the Sonics is still a bit up in the air, but if so we can only hope that one young player on that potential future squad will be breaking out this Shawn Kemp classic somewhere down the line. Continue reading to check out a 360 view of the Reebok Kamikaze II and keep in mind that shops like Concepts will be releasing these come January 18th.

Reebok Classics is ready to kick off its much-anticipated 2013 campaign with the long-awaited and soon-to-be celebrated launch of the Reebok Kamikaze II OG.
