Reebok works in collaboration with UNITED ARROWS on a new iteration of the notable Classic Leather sneaker model for the season. It takes on a minimal design approach with the classic leather construction and retro shape that remains uninterrupted.
The Japanese retailer joins the sportswear imprint to create the special edition using both smooth and grain leather throughout the upper. This gives it a textural contrast throughout to stand out against the entirely white silhouette. It has perforated details over the toe to add some breathability to the model. Additional details include the branding that can be seen on the tongue and paneled detail on the lateral side of the shoe. It is rounded out by crisp white laces over the forefoot.
