Reebok has been having quite the resurgence as of late with their slew of fresh collaborations and recent revival of some of their greatest Basketball silhouettes. The Question has had collaborations with skate brand Ice Cream and former NBA MVP James Harden of the Houston Rockets, the Kamikaze II is set to return in its original glory but that team at Reebok would be ill-advised to leave out Hall of Fame Center Shaquille O’Neal’s debut silhouette — the Reebok Shaqnosis.
This time the Reebok Shaqnosis collides with First We Feast’s Hot Ones for a perfect amalgamation. The silhouette is dressed in an all Black leather and suede upper with its signature hypnotic rings colored with red, orange, yellow, and green to match the show’s Scoville meter. The Scoville meter itself appears on the tongue of the shoe as the pepper logo and the text “Scoville Level 1,995,000” directly pasted from the Youtube series.
The shoe’s sock liner features a flame graphic and the Hot Ones logo finds itself on the shoes’ insoles, a similarly inconspicuous flame graphic can be found on the toe of the shoe as well. This collaboration is a wonderful exercise in subtlety as it takes one of the series most iconic elements and transforms it. The Hot Ones x Reebok Shaqnosis is eye-catching yet understated especially for shoes based around the idea of eye-watering spiciness.
