Reebok's Question Mid “Black & Blue” Salutes the OG Color-Blocking of Allen Iverson's Rookie Shoe

Reebok continues to cook up ways to pay homage to Allen Iverson‘s career with its flurry of Question Mid colorways this year. We recently saw the Boston sportswear imprint align with Packer for a Question Mid “Burgundy Suede” collaboration that honored the Hall of Fame point guard’s legacy and now we’re seeing it uncover the same silhouette in a new “Black & Blue” colorway that calls out the OG color-blocking of his rookie shoe.

First introduced in ‘96, the Reebok Question Mid has been best known for its unique presentation that can be identified by its uniform base layers and contrasting toe box overlays. This latest variation substitutes the OG makeup’s angelic uppers for a stark black tumbled leather as well as its Sixers-friendly red suede toe boxes and Question logo-branded heels for a bold blue. Subtle touches of white poke out through the vector insignias that are embroidered onto the tongues and the quarter panels. Extra details on these hoops-turned-lifestyle kicks include the Hexalite aesthetic side pods that have been filled in with more blue hits along with the see-through treading.

Those interested in picking up a pair can find Reebok dropping these on August 18 for $170 USD.
