In what looks like yet another year of NMD domination, it’s easy to ride with runner mania. But, when we do this, we often end up underrating or forgetting another category. This time around, we shout out the tennis sneaker and all its glory. Specifically, we take a look at the Reebok Phase 1 Pro THOF.
It’s rare to see a sneaker release in a modern context with its classic shape and traits. Reebok, one of the best sources for OG sneaker design goodness, happens to be pretty adept at this. The Phase 1 is often forgotten more because of the brand’s relatively deep catalog. When you’re knocking shoulders with legends like the Instapump, Workout, or Classic Leather models, it can get tough to stand out.
Fortunately, for this Phase 1 drop, it’s remarkably close enough to its heyday design to be very noticeable. Sporting a crisp colorway, this version shows a leather upper and two-tone midsole design. For cushion, that midsole also gets a helping of EVA. Finally, a rubber outsole helps keep you on your feet.
Cop this oldie-but-goodie over at Foot District.
