White Men Can Jump In The Reverse Jams
Although we remember a number of things from the comedic street-ball classic “White Men Can't Jump”, like Rosie Perez's Ds and the witty banter between Woody and Wesley, these Reverse Jams somehow slipped our mind. Luckily, Reebok opened the vault from the early 90s and are re-releasing Billy Hoyle's kicks of choice. The first colors that drop are black and white, coincidentally coinciding with the whole Ebony/Ivory match-up from the movie. These RJ's might not hold up on the court today, but the vintage aesthetic will surely get you some daps from the cool-kids, we promise. $70, reebok.com
UPDATE: So apparently Billy Hoyle didn't wear these kicks in White Men Can't Jump, and Reebok goofed up. Big deal, they're still dope. Special shout out to the sneaker nerds at Sole Collector for doing extensive research while we were on the beach last weekend.

Good Job Sole Collector! I am suprised they were able to pull themselves away from their game of D&D long enough to figure this out.
