Reebok The Pump x 24 Kilates

The interesting thing about gathering 20 sneaker entities to create their own version of of a single sneaker is the diversity of ideas.

Thus far we have seen several additions to the Reebok Pump 20th Anniversary collection. Every sneaker has had its own unique flavor, making the project very interesting to follow.

Barcelona based 24 Kilates entry to the project has an interesting twist. The shop has chosen to pay respect to the original colorway, giving the sneaker a black suede base with orange accents.

The sneaker's uniqueness is the inclusion of transparent panels on the tongue and side of the sneaker. 24 Kilates wanted to pay homage to the revolutionary design of the Pump, and thus wanted to show it in action.

The kicks will be available in very limited numbers in Barcelona on the 20th of November.
