Dee Brown’s role in the Reebok Pump craze is immeasurable. While he was never the All-Star level player that dominated the 1990s era of basketball footwear, few moments can live up to his Dunk Contest in 1991 where he pumped up his shoes before sealing the deal on his trophy-winning performance. It was certainly a “eureka” moment in the world of marketing, which explains why Pump footwear is still relevant today (and we interviewed Dee Brown Nike Air Max Waffle Racer SP).
Later this year, Reebok will be dropping a “Celtics” colorway of the Air Jordan 11 "Legend Blue"; it’s similar to the black/white pair Brown wore during that contest, but these feature a third accent color of lucky Celtics green on the mesh underlay, the lace eyelets, and interior lining. Further commemorating the significance of this model are the special insoles that feature a parquet floor pattern – a nod to the Boston Garden hardwood.
This Nike Air Force 1 Low "Kobe Bryant" is expected to release later this year at Reebok.com and partnering retailers.
