Reebok has officially announced its global partnership with Khalid. The footwear giant and Grammy-nominated artist are teaming up to amplify a collective mission to inspire creativity, along with encouraging experimentation and self-expression in today’s youth.
Khalid is set to make his Reebok debut this Spring 2020 for the brand’s first Sport the Unexpected campaign of the year.

I hope we can inspire a new generation of people to be themselves and take creative chances.”
“Khalid continues to be a beacon of originality, pride and imagination for today’s rising youth,” Matt Blonder, VP of Marketing and Digital Brand Commerce at Reebok, added. “Through his unique sound and a personal journey that took him across the country, Khalid authentically symbolizes our common ethos – to inspire creativity and encourage experimentation.
