HEAD PORTER's New Endeavor
In February of this year, the shop "HEAD PORTER TOKYO" in Harajuku, Tokyo, underwent a renewal and reopened, introducing the apparel line "HEAD PORTER PLUS". With the concept of "SIMPLE & FINE", they offer a lineup of simple, comfortable items.
This time, to commemorate HEAD PORTER's 15th anniversary, HEAD PORTER PLUS has collaborated with footwear brand "REEBOK". They are releasing a collaborative sneaker based on Reebok's long-selling "Classic Leather" shoe, which also celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.
Released in 1983, the Classic Leather was launched as a stylish and functional running shoe for fashion-conscious men and women of the time, achieving immense popularity. It remains a beloved masterpiece sneaker today. For this collaboration, the entire upper is adorned with the iconic leopard pattern from HEAD PORTER's signature series. To highlight the pattern, the side stripes adopt the specifications of early Classic Leather models. The tongue and side logos are deliberately understated and unified in tone, with aハラコ-like (haircalf-textured) material used.
