The Reebok Question Low was recently brought back to the market via its retro launch of the “Green Toe” makeup, and now it’s slated to revive an extra clean colorway from 1999: the “Grey Toe”. This two-toned installment saw an early release via Packer and Full Court Press, but now the vector brand has officially confirmed its wider release.Returning for the first time in 22 years, this straightforward installment retains its OG color schemes, but makes a minor adjustment in its upper build. Instead of utilizing the original shaggy suedes for its toe cap, the designers at Reebok have reincarnated this offering with a patent leather material. More notes of gray are sprinkled along the lace loops, embroidered Reebok logos situated on the mid-foot and tongues, as well as the glossy heel panels. Elsewhere on these low-slung basketball-turned-lifestyle kicks, the leather lateral and medial walls, as well as the mesh tongues are done up in a crisp clean white. More hits of gray are also applied to the backgrounds of the lower heel’s customary “3” embellishment — a call out to Allen Iverson’s jersey number — the hexagon paneling on the midsoles and the treading.The Reebok Question Low “Grey Toe” is confirmed to launch on June 10 via Reebok and other retailers for $120 USD.In other footwear news, JJ Watt is honoring Pat Tillman with his latest JJ IV “Valor” colorway.

Due to the fact that Dunks are arguably the hottest sneakers in the game at the moment, Nike is taking full advantage of its reclaimed fame by continuing to fashion it in a multitude of new colorways. Hot off the heels of revealing a detailed look at its “Crazy Camo” makeup, the Nike Dunk Low has now uncovered official imagery of its forthcoming “Sail/Light Bone” variation.For footwear fans who tend to gravitate towards kicks that are heavy in neutral colors and sport a vintage essence, these just might be the ones for you. Guiding its visual composition here is a “Sail” hue that flows over the perforated toe boxes, quarter paneling and collars. Its “Light Bone” tone plays a supporting role here and baptizes the shoe laces, side Swooshes and overlays for barely visible contrasting. In terms of further color-blocking on the base, the tongues and throat tabs offset with a “Pale Ivory” complexion. Shifting gears to the bottoms, the midsoles are served up with a slightly worn-in aesthetic thanks to its somewhat yellowed coating, and the outsoles round off its design with a gray exterior.No official release date has been given at this time, but it’s likely that these will drop in the coming months for the usual $100 USD via SNKRS and select shops.Looking for more Nike news?

Even though he titled his most recent album The Off Season, J. Cole has been hard at work with many a different initiatives including that of dropping new music videos and playing pro ball in Rwanda for the inaugural Basketball Africa League. And now, the “platinum no features” rapper is shining a light once again on his signature line with PUMA to roll out more colorways of his RS-Dreamer.Following up on the launch of the RS-Dreamer 2 “Off-Season Red” makeup – which of course pays homage to his latest record — the artist is lining up “Red”, “Blue” and “Lime Green” colorways of his original silhouette. Each take permits its titular shading to purloin most of the attention and wrap the mesh paneling across the toe boxes, collars and side walls while a sold black hue accents throughout the base layer’s overlays, tongue and heel tabs, interior lining and piping. Reflective notes also appear on these court-centric kicks along the forefoot and lateral side tabs that hold down its cord lacing system. Midsoles down below, which are fashioned with blocky textures, are treated with the all-black aesthetic.Mark your calendars for a May 28 release for the “Red” pair, July 2 for the “Blue” option and September 3 for the “Lime Green” installment.
