Reebok x size? Re/Cut Classic Leather Crepe – Release Info

The size? Re/Cut series with Reebok continues with the impending release of the REEBOK X SIZE? RE/CUT CLASSIC LEATHER CREPE, which drops at the end of the week.

The lads at size? have taken the leather and replaced it with a premium flat suede, although there is a subtle touch of leather in the form of a piped trim that surrounds the suede tongue. The ‘Reebok’ name is embossed into the side panels in the distinctive Motter Tektura typeface. Now, according to the sneaker boffins at size?,  this font was introduced in the late 70s, with the Union Jack not appearing until later when the brand decided to emphasise its British roots in order to differentiate it from the American competition. History lesson over, let’s get back to the shoe: as the name suggests, there is indeed a crepe outsole. The size? team felt that eschewing the traditional ridged outsole for the formal- and leisurewear-focused crepe was the right choice to make given contemporary consumer preferences. And who are we to argue? This latest Re/Cut drop will be available two seasonally appropriate colours that represent the ‘deep juniper’ leaves that turn to ‘rich tones or rust and ginger’ at this time of year. Yes, yes!…we can just see ourselves sporting a pair of these as we stroll through the downs, paired with a corduroy suit and clutching our favourite, well thumbed Penguin Classic. So autumnal, so refined.

The REEBOK X SIZE? RE/CUT CLASSIC LEATHER CREPE will be available to purchase from FRIDAY 18 NOVEMBER via the banner below.
