This latest collaboration between Reebok and Japanese clothing brand SOUTH2 WEST8 marks the second time both brands have teamed up for a footwear collaboration. Focusing on the Reebok Zig Kinetica 2.5 Edge this time around, this iteration of the model opts for a unique fly-fishing and military-inspired aestheti on the technical sport-style shoe.
Founded in 2003 by Kaname Nagaoka, SOUTH2 WEST8 develops fashionable clothing and gear for use in “Tenkara” fly fishing, often drawing on military-style aesthetics and materials. Details on the sneaker include a textile camouflage upper paired up with lush suede, leather overlays, and a spiky rubber toe cap complemented by a black heel loop and matching black laces. Furthermore, the sneaker dons a speckled black and grey midsole that encapsulates Floatride Fuel cushioning above an anti-slip 30% pre-consumer recycled Vibram Ecostep lugged outsole.
