24 Kilates x Reebok Pump
Posted by Alex Kroviak | Nov 5, 2009
Next up in the ever-growing list of Reebok Pump collaborations is this pair from Spanish shop 24 Kilates. At first glance it appears that the retailer’s design team did nothing at all to a pair of original black Pumps, but further investigation will show that this sneaker pays tribute while still moving forward with its design. Rather than opt for black leather, the uppers are made with suede, keeping the look of the original in tact. Transparent material was used in places to show off the inner pump bubbles running throughout, creating a “window” into the inner-workings of the Pump system. According to Pol Fanlo, “24 KILATES’ main objective is to make an act of respect and admiration to a system that represented a revolution in the sneaker world. Respecting the original colours and showing the system to everyone to admire, a tribute with sense.” Like the other collaborations we’ve seen, 31 individually-numbered pairs will be available on November 20th at the 24 Kilates store. That being said, what do you think of these collaborative sneakers? Head to the comments section and weigh in. |

So PYS has the OG colorways of the Omni pumps (Dee Brown baby) in stock…just in case any of you are interested…I picked up a pair of the Dee’s…might buy the white colorway too.
The Pump is back in a big way.

These are straight but the solobox joints are crazy! The suade on these are a nice touch. 31 pairs WTF?!?

These are fresh. Wish I could get my hands on ‘em. While I give Reebok props for the celebration and campaign, gotta give ‘em an ‘F’ for execution. To have all of these collabs set to 31 measly pairs?! What’s the point?! Are they trying to aggravate people?
Adidas has been killin’ it with collabs as of late, but don’t go out of their way to make them darn near impossible to get. Just my two cents. *lol*

i like the concept
nice to see the insides, but i think it coulda been executed better
its a shame that its only gonna be 31 of each collab - means most of these will never see the asphalt
