To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Reebok‘s Classic Leather, Reebok has partnered with some of the industry’s most notable names over the course of the year. Limited Edt, Singapore’s most famous sneaker boutique, is the latest of the select certified network of retailers globally to be part of this celebration of the Reebok Classic Leather.
With 2013 being the Year of the Snake, Limited Edt dresses the classic model in a reptilian style. The design team of Limited Edt – comprising of Jonning Chng, Alvin Huang and Mandeep Chopra (who go by the moniker JAM) – pushed the envelope to stratospheric heights by incorporating green iridescent faux snakeskin on the shoe’s exterior; with an inner layer made up of different multicoloured snakeskin, referencing to how snakes moult or shed skin. This embodies the snake’s alluring beauty after the reptile renews its skin. Reflective and glow in the dark elements don the outsole, tongue logo, and lateral Reebok logo which draw a parallel with the nocturnal nature of these reptiles and their glistening eyes. The inner lining of the shoe, made of Reebok Play Dry material to keep one cool, takes on a pink hue to represent the oral cavity of the snake. This pink accent also presents itself on the midsole and the spare laces.
The Reebok Classic Leather x Limited Edt is available at Limited Edition stores islandwide.
