We’re Pumped Up For The Year Of The Rat

RBK has stepped it up with their recent Reverse Jams and as they move toward next year, they'll look to keep the momentum going with these Chinese New Year-inspired Pump Omni Lites. 2008 is the Year of The Rat and to pay homage Reebok designers set out to create sneakers that took motivation from things like lucky-money envelopes that children are given out on the holiday. The back story will be cool amongst your nerdy sneaker friends, but from a strict aesthetic p.o.v, cool-guys will notice the one-color-dominant uppers, a trend that will be popping for upcoming months. Start next year off fresh.
