Rebook has been producing sneakers inspired by the artwork of Jean-Michel Basquiat for a few seasons now. For the fall / winter 2009 collection Reebok has released the NPC Clean in a black base with a print inspired by Basquiat. Word has it that the sneakers are now available at select shops.
The late Jean-Michel Basquiat is rooted in the New York street art scene beginning his career with Graffiti. Basquiat was then embraced by the New York art scene of the 1980's as a Neo-expressionist.
Basquiat's legacy is still felt today and this is evident with the recent collection of Reebok sneakers inspired by the work of the artist. The latest pair of kicks from the collection is the Reebok Top Down, which has just released in two colorways. One of the kicks comes in white while the other in turquoise with both featuring bold use of Basquiat's artwork. Both pairs are now available and can be found at Paris based Colette for 70 euros.
