A full view has surfaced regarding the upcoming Reverse Jam collaboration between store Leaders 1345 and Reebok. The original preview offered a simple peek at speckled laces which can now be seen further onto the midsole. The multi-colored specks and embroidery are definitely evened out by the plain gray upper. Colors seen within Chicago’s transit train lines are the reason behind the multi-colored sneaker. A map of the Chi-town transit system is seen within the translucent sole. Two different models will differentiate the South (red line) and North (blue line). Look for these to hit in April.
