After reviving its 2001 silhouette Instapump Fury, Reebok has turned to the nostalgic past once again for new inspiration. This time around, the footwear brand has called in the 80-year-old Warner Bros. animation Tom & Jerry for colorful takes on some Reebok classics, coming in both kids and adult sizes — featured are the Club C Revenge, the Club C 85, and the Instapump Fury.
First up is the Intampump Fury x Tom, covered in delicate gray faux-fur, neoprene, leather, and rubber materials. The top of the sneakers come with bright red “Tom and Jerry” branding at the heel and tongue pulls. The silhouette’s signature Pump fit system sees a gray button and neoprene overlays around the body. Thick rubber yellow swatches are placed along the forefoot, followed by a pointy black leather toe cap that resembles Tom’s nose. Other details like a bright green patch at the heel, graphic embroidery below it and subtle “#” motifs at the midsole finish off the vibrant design.
The next sneaker is the Club C Revenge, modeled this time, after Jerry. Accented with bright pink inner collars, the shoe comes with cream-colored uppers in soft suede. The muted palette is contrasted by round furry orange laces and a “Tom and Jerry” rubber patch sewn onto the sidewalls. “#?!” is sewn over the heel counter, while black stitches are placed at the lower mid-section of the body. All of these details sit atop a yellowish vintage-toned midsole, underscored by a thin semi-translucent outsole. A second Club C arrives in an identical makeup, with the shaggy suedes swapped out for smooth grey leathers.
Lastly, the Club C 85 x Tom & Jerry features both the aforementioned characters. Etched over a light ecru-tinged leather base, the shoe boasts an upper emblazoned with thin black caricatures of Tom and Jerry. Starting at the top of the shoe, a woven tab is placed at the tongue, above flat laces and subtle perforations near the toe box. The inner collars come with a delicate fleece lining for added warmth and comfort. Reebok branding is stamped at the sidewalls over an angular geometric panel, while tonal double-stitching appears at the front toe cap. To offset the busy patterns, the midsole has been given a light retro tone, a nod to the cartoon’s nostalgic heritage.
All four sneakers from the Reebok x Tom and Jerry capsule will be available on February 15th at Reebok’s official website, its physical global outposts and select retailers, across the globe, retailing from $100 – $200 USD.
