Known for his work that intersects luxury, art, and basketball culture, Victor Solomon of Literally Balling fame previously collaborated with Reebok on the BB 4000 II, bringing an elevated construction and unique aesthetic to the model. Following the success of that release, Solomon is now set to reimagine one of Allen Iverson’s signature sneakers, the Answer 3, with a refined and opulent touch.
The Victor Solomon x Reebok Answer 3 takes inspiration from Solomon’s art style, known for its luxurious materials and detailed craftsmanship. This collaboration features a clean palette of white, metallic gold, and black, making the sneaker both striking and elegant. The upper is adorned with pebbled metallic gold leather on the eyestays, the top of the tongue, the heel, and portions of the midfoot.
White quilted leather covers the toe and the collar portion of the midfoot, adding a touch of sophistication and texture to the design. The branding stays true to the original model with updated logos for Victor Solomon on the left lace dubrae and the insole. The look is completed with a white midsole and a black and white outsole, ensuring that the sneaker remains true to its basketball roots while standing out as a piece of art.
The Victor Solomon x Reebok Answer 3 will release on May 31, 2024, through Literally Balling, Reebok online, and select retailers in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $200.
