BAIT and Reebok Launch the Army Men Iteration of the Instapump
BAIT works in collaboration with sportswear brand Reebok on a new iteration of the Instapump Fury OG Sneakers inspired by the green army men from the film series Toy Story. The duo join forces to design the signature silhouette in a tonal finish inspired by the character.
The design elements including the small inflatable chambers are retained to deliver ultimate comfort on wearers' feet. The colorway boasts an all-over finish of the army men green that is then detailed further with branding accents in the form of the BAIT pull tab at the shoe's heel. Notably, each pair is packaged in a toy-themed box and limited available through an online raffle.
