Reebok Kamikaze II Easter

The Reebok Kamikaze II "Easter" gave a classic design a new twist when it released in 2014. The original Reebok Kamikaze line was a signature sneaker line for 6-time NBA All Star Shawn Kemp of the Seattle Supersonics. The Kamikaze II was the version he wore during the 1995-1996 NBA season and was one of the most popular Reebok basketball shoes of the late 90s thanks to its Hexalite cushioning and contrasting color patterns that made it easily recognizable. The head-turning design of the Kamikaze II took a different direction when it received a modern remake with the "Easter" version. The Easter Kamikaze II design--officially colored Jadite/Utopic Teal/White/Electrolyte Yellow--features a subtle mix of pastel tones that will have you thinking about hunting for Easter eggs rather than playing basketball. The textured upper, teal suede overlay panel, and subtle yellow speckles on the midsole made this one of the most unique Kamikaze II colorways Reebok has ever made. With its low key colorway and limited marketing efforts behind it, the Easter Kamikaze released somewhat off the radar. Though it may be a far cry from the original colorways, the Reebok Kamikaze II "Easter" gave sneaker enthusiasts a new perspective on this classic design from Reebok.
