The Reebok Kolors series are now available at Bodega, the brand new store in Boston. The RBK Kolors seems to be targeted to consumers who desire sneakers with bright colorways that we’re seeing a lot of nowadays. In addition, matching caps will be released along side each sneaker. The first series has already been released on May 1st. The next and subsequent released will be on July 1st, September 1st and November 1st. Personally, I like the caps more than the sneakers themselves but nevertheless, it’s a step forward for Reebok into the ‘sneaker game’.

From the Consortium series in the 35th Anniversary campaign, to the recent retro Superstar Vintage & Pro model, Adidas has wisely used the vintage outsole, and applied it to a fair few models apart from those mentioned.
This time, it has been applied on the Superstar 1. The effect is striking. Its simplicity brings back the traditional Adidas usage of the colour pallette.
They will be released in the UK at Offspring, Size?, No. 6 Newburgh Street.
