Grace Mahas — April 18, 2024 — Social Good
Reebok and streetwear brand PLEASURES have joined forces to release the Not Guilty footwear and apparel capsule, part of Reebok’s Human Rights Now! initiative aimed at highlighting racial inequities in the U.S. cannabis industry. The collaboration continues the impactful partnership between Reebok and PLEASURES, known for producing culturally resonant and sought-after designs.
Launching on April 19 exclusively at pleasuresnow.com and available on reebok.ca from April 20, the capsule features the unisex Club C BULC sneaker. This skate-inspired version of Reebok's classic Club C tennis shoe is revamped in PLEASURES' signature green with premium materials and thoughtful detailing, including a durable rubber toe cap and a tongue stash pocket. The footwear is complemented by a collection of blacked-out unisex apparel that includes a Premium Heavy Weight Hoodie, Street Style Relaxed Fit Tee, and Crinkled Nylon 5-Inch Short, each designed to echo the capsule’s theme of justice reform. This launch not only underscores the brands' commitment to social issues but also reinforces their influence in the streetwear culture.
