Reebok and National Geographic collaborated to launch a new collection of full-family footwear. The collection launch is set for September 23 at 10 am EST exclusively on Reebok's website. Paring Reebok's performance and lifestyle silhouettes with design details inspired by National Geographic's visual storytelling, the footwear is inspired by world travel.
The adventure-themed shoes were designed in collaboration with Reebok and Dr. Rao Wynn-Grant, and Matthieu Paley, two National Geographic Explorers. Ideal for creative, curiosity, or performance-based journeys, the sneaker collection is brought to life by the thrills of exploration.
Additionally, each shoe silhouette contains a unique QR code on the tongue. When scanned, consumers are transported into the world that inspired the product design through immersive videos and other fun facts about the region.
