Compton-born Kendrick Lamar continues to be a unifying force between the rival gangs in his hometown with the latest Reebok partnership. The new release, a light gray suede iteration of the iconic Reebok Classic Leather, features the blue and red contrast detailing seen on the rapper’s Reebok Ventilator – another nod to the existing fraction between the Bloods and Crips. On either side, ‘BLUE’ and ‘RED’ are embossed on the heel and counterbalanced by ‘NEUTRAL’ under the tongue pulls in a message for harmony. The design is rounded out by Kendrick Lamar signatures on the insole, a rubber outer sole, and gray specked round shoelaces. The Kendrick Lamar x Reebok Classic Leather is scheduled to be released on January 16.
