Remember the Pump? A lot of people talk about begging their Moms for Jordans, but in a lot of areas, the Reebok Pump held as much cache as any sneaker on the market. Sneakerheads who “really lived it” may contest, but hop in a time machine to 1992 and ask any second grader what sneakers they want, and you’ll get a 50/50 split.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the sneaker that had everyone pressing the air-filled basketball before sporting events, stunting in the lunch room, or just plain wasting time pretending to talk to girls. The Reebok brand is investing heavily on bringing the sneaker back with a series of new releases, and you know what? It just may work, because the sneaker has history. Hit the jump and take a walk through the Pump’s best moments…

Next month, Reebok keeps the collaborations going with streetwear label Orchard Street with this Fuze 1.0. Back in April, a green colorway of this strap-y silhouette hit the blogs, but this two-toned gray make-up is far better. If you’re wondering where the Fuze 1.0 came from, it’s actually a brand new style in Reebok’s arsenal that OS is getting the first crack at. Want to cop? Check RBK stores around the nation in a few weeks.

Rather than have some MySpace superstar customize their sneakers, Reebok offered three different boutiques the chance to go in the lab and design some low-run kicks.
Boston-based Karmaloop took a crack at designing two Ventilators, and came out with two unique models called The Purple Heart and The Blue Blood. Both sneakers are limited to 60 pairs each, and just became available online. Cop
'em for $115 HERE.
