Swizz Beatz & Nas Unveil the Reebok “Snakes” Posted by Ru Porter on 07/12/12 | Filed under QuickHits, Sneakers, Reebok, Style

Our favorite athletes and artists flocked to L.A.’s sports version of the Grammys --otherwise known as the ESPY Awards ceremony on July 11 to celebrate another year of both individual and athletic team achievement. And besides all the Linsanity Jeremy caused at the Nokia Theater for winning a ‘Breakout Athlete Of The Year’ award, something else rather dope happened. Swizz Beatz unveiled some yet-to-be-released snakeskin Reeboks backstage with the Godson Nas.

Dubbed the “Snakes,” the model features an all over snakeskin print with metallic silver for the plastic lace holders. The silhouette boats a black/white color scheme with a white mid-sole, grey outsole and pops of red. There’s no word on the price tag just yet, much less an official press release from the company, but what I do know is that according to the interwebs this particular model is part of the Reebok Pump Twilight Zone collection.

Generally, I’m not a fan of animal print anything, as I find it to be busy, however, I have to admit that these bad boys were designed quite tastefully. By the looks of it, you can tell Swizzy was going for an upscale, high fashion couture look.

I’ll be sure to give more details as they emerge. Until then, leave your comments below.
