Where to Buy Warren Lotas "Desert Canvas" Reapers

The Warren Lotas Reaper strikes again, this time with a vengeance as Lotas is set to drop his “Return to Vegas” collection on July 18, 2021.

Lotas shared a first look of the sneaker on his Instagram saying, “This Reaper uses a heavy, distressed canvas for the upper. It is a light tan/natural color. I’m not the first guy to do this, but these are also pretty simple to dye yourself like I did in the next slide using the colors from the LAY DOWN YOUR PISTOL shirt. Use whatever you have… I used leather dye and paint mixed with water.”

We like that Lotas is encouraging people to stylize their Reapers and we’re excited to see what people come up with. Recently Lotas has been a figure of controversy for putting his own spin on the iconic Nike Dunk silhouette that he used as a reference to create the Reapers. After barely being able to push through a lawsuit issued by Nike, Lotas’ manufacturer decided to file their own personal counterclaim against Nike as well.

Nonetheless, the discussion around the sneaker community still remains; What’s imitation and what’s homage? Are the Reapers a grey area?

The Warren Lotas Reapers “Desert Canvas” will be available to purchase on his website on July 18th at 5pm EST / 2pm PST. Lotas specified that these Reapers are a pre-order, so you can expect an 8-12 week turnaround time. There’s no official price point yet, but considering past Reapers have had a price tag of $300, it’s safe to say that you can expect the same for this drop.
