Celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Workout, Reebok Classics has collaborated with fifteen top retail partners from around the globe. One of a handful of sneakers that defies its age, the Reebok Workout is a true classic. Originally designed as a multi-discipline shoe, the sneaker provided a cross-gender solution to lateral support as well as a point-of-difference, making a simple shoe an icon. The evolved dual strap concept lending both functionality and an arresting aesthetic.

In 1987 — 25 years ago — the Workout had a slight makeover. Adding extra paneling on the forefoot, the sneaker became more durable for street wear and the Reebok Workout Plus was born.

Today we reveal the first collaboration of the project. Berlin based sneaker retailer Solebox as usual wanted to take a new approach for this collaboration and decided to go with fish leather on the entire upper, the result being an exclusive and premium feel. Also this is the first time ever that fish leather has been used on the iconic sneaker. Along with the rest of the collaborations, the Solebox x Reebok Workout will drop on February 15th, 2012.

More information and images of the sneaker follow on our dedicated Reebok Workout 25th Anniversary Microsite.

This past weekend Solemart came once again to Paris. Produced by Solebox and LaMJC, the two brought together collectors and buyers and it looks like it turned out great. From what we see and hear, the location was really good, they had lots of traffic and an amazing offering of rare kicks from the last couple of decades.

For 2011 Solebox produced another ‘Then & Now’ Pack with adidas. The adidas Equipment Support is the ‘Then’ part and features a colorway inspired by the 1992 version, yet features a Climacool upper. Sadly though, the sneaker was produced in extremely limited numbers and is only available to Solebox employees. The ‘Now’ part of the pack is still to come.

The sneaker comes in a black/grey colorway with red color accents and most importantly, they once again built in light technology, something that first appeared in the collaboration by Solebox and Reebok for the 25th anniversary of the Pump. The sneaker is limited to only 100 pairs and will therefore go fast, as you can imagine.

In an interesting collaboration Berlin based sneaker store Solebox has gotten together with watch brand Sinn on the U2 diver’s model.

“The diving watch U2 is a professional mission timer which uses genuine German submarine steel, a material with extreme seawater resistance and the highest level of non-magnetic properties. In the movement itself, functional reliability between -45 °C and +80 °C is ensured by the SINN special oil 66-228. And that´s not all: with the diver´s bezel tempered to 1500 Vickers, this diving watch is well-equipped to measure the duration of a dive accurately.

Fogging of the dial poses a safety risk when diving. To prevent this, we use seals made of Viton®. This material, with its extreme chemical resistance and only a quarter of the gas permeability of conventional seals, prevents moisture from diffusing into the diving watch. The slightly domed, 4.2 mm thick scratch-proof anti-reflective sapphire crystal glass with a hardness von 1800 HV withstands even the highest pressures. The case is filled with a protective gas, while three drying capsules keep the interior dry.”

The watch is packed with functionality and will come with a silicone strap, as well as an olive Zulu canvas strap. Today we had the chance to check it out live at the store and it came out beautiful. We especially like the orange accents on the bezel, which set a nice highlight on the otherwise black watch. Only 10 watches will be offered to the public, and they will retail for 2950 Euro. The release is set for July 17th.

More detailed images of the watch follow after the jump.
