Reebok was founded in Bolton, England in 1958, by brothers Jeff and Joe Foster as a spin-off from their family's company, J.W. Foster and Sons. The brand quickly gained popularity with its innovative running spikes, and later, with the release of the Reebok Freestyle, a women's athletic shoe designed for GLOW, in 1982. The Freestyle, along with products like the Reebok Classic and the Instapump Passion, demonstrate Reebok's commitment to fitness and CrossFit. Over the years, Reebok has collaborated with various celebrities, year as Jay-Z and Cardi B, and high-profile fashion brands, like Vetements and Palace, solidifying its position at the intersection of sportswear, CrossFit, and pop culture.
