2016 marks the 20-year anniversary of the Reebok Question. The debut signature sneaker for Allen Iverson, the Question would become one of the brand's most iconic models.

To kick-off the celebration, Reebok is releasing a two-tone, "Black/White" iteration dubbed, "Bad News." The feature element of the shoe is an upper that features a newspaper-esque design that shows headlines attributed to Iverson including "POUND FOR POUND THE GREATEST," "THUGGISH," and "Leaders practice not complain." On the heel, in lieu of Iverson's "3," is an image of the Scales of Justice, a possible reference to the Hampton bowling alley incident that almost derailed Iverson's future. On the medial side, the word "Bad" sits plainly in white against the black suede upper. Combined with the lateral side, you can see where the shoe's nickname is derived.

Reebok also has plans of bringing back the OG "White/Red" colorway which, like the Bad News model, has yet to receive an official release date. Stay tuned as 2016 is going to be a memorable year for the Question.
