Reebok and Daniel Moon collaborated for the first time to create the Major Reebok capsule with a bright color palette that takes cues from the hair colorist's signature hair art. The colorful new versions of the Reebok Classic Leather Legacy and Club C Legacy styles were inspired by Moon’s most popular and requested hair colors and the details on the sneakers like leather materials were included to remind of shaved heads.
As Moon details: "The sock liner of the Classic Leather Legacy is a photograph of an actual hair piece that I worked on. It serves as a blueprint of the shoes."
The name of the capsule comes from Moon's service in the Marine Corps and the nickname "Major Moon."
