Reebok Dives into its Archives to Bring Life to the LT Court
Reebok continues to honor its own heritage with a look into its archives - the brand breathes life back to the LT Court sneaker model, which was a staple during the 80s. The shoe gets a 2022 revival with a minimal palette that blends together Alabaster, Batik Blue, and Footwear White.
The shoes kick off with a white leather material at the base foundation of the upper. The Alabaster suede makes its way over the toe bumper and finally, the Batik Blue hue is accented on suede across the heel section. The same blue continues at the terry cotton lining, which is a mindful nod to the 80s which continues at the yellowed midsole for a retro design language.
