Reebok have enlisted some of the world’s best sneaker stores and boutiques to come together as a collective under their ‘Certfied Network’ series. Within the network each store was asked to add their interpretation on various classic Reebok silhouettes. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Instapump Fury OG – to celebrate we were asked by Reebok to put our take on the infamous model.

The Reebok Instapump silhouette has seen it’s fair share of outlandish colourways and designs. After creating many ‘themed’ collaborations over the years ourselves, we decided to strip back to basics and design a calmer colourway. With this release we’re aiming to attract the sneakerhead that may not normally wear the shoe by hopefully making it more accessible. Using a muted palette combined with premium materials & a touch of asymmetric details was the way forward for us!

We opted for an Athletic Navy base – micro perf on the toe-box running through to the tongue, with a nappy Navy suede heel. Nappy suede continues on the toe-cap in a canvas colour with a 3M reflective panel on the underlay. The two-toned PUMP Bladder features the Canvas colour on the lateral panel and Athletic Navy colour on the medial with a Navy tongue pull-tab branded with the Footpatrol Bar logo. Further Canvas coloured accents can be seen on the fore-foot and heel. A 3M reflective pull-tab has been added on the heel with the dual-branded Footpatrol mash-up Gasmask logo printed beneath. The inner lining is dressed in the smoothest pigskin leather with a tonal coloured footbed featuring the Instapump Fury logo and the FP mash-up Gasmask logo. A white midsole is added with Flat Grey and Canvas accents, and a translucent Flat Grey panel is added on the fore-foot of the outsole.

The Footpatrol x Reebok Instapump Fury OG is available now in-store (SOLD OUT ONLINE). Sizes range from UK4 – UK12 (including half sizes) priced at £135.
