EXTRA BUTTER X REEBOK VENTILATOR “STREET MEAT”
2015-02-02This year marks the 25th anniversary of the original release of the Reebok Ventilator. With so many good movies to choose from in one of cinema’s best years (1990), it was almost impossible for us to narrow the choices to just one. Cut to a late night craving for some halal—and the discovery that halal food carts were established and skyrocketed in popularity in 1990—and the idea for the affectionately named “Street Meat” was born.
The colorway interpretation quite literally for this one, was drawn from a palette of halal plate foodstuffs—lamb, chicken, and falafel inspired upper; oblong yellow rice speckled midsole; undercooked chicken hits on the outsole; lettuce arch support foot bridge; and of course, extra lace options for the infamous red and white sauce, as well as mismatched red and white stripes on the medial and lateral sides. And of course, a little reflective pop on the lace stay, and a hybrid reEBok logo.
