Needles x Reebok Beatnik MOC Black Purple

Reebok has teamed up with Japanese clothing label Needles, in hopes to gain momentum on its Beatnik MOC. While the Beatnik Sandals were well received by the footwear community upon its relaunch in 2018, its MOC’s was greeted by a fairly lacklustre reception. With the Beatnik having somewhat of a cult following in Japan, it’s only a matter of time before Needles fluttered its way onto the MOCs.

The Beatnik’s lines truly play into the Japanese aesthetic and as Needles pays focus to its silhouettes, both perfectly complement one-another. The aggressive tread of the outsole is present, a key component that gives the Beatnik its multi-purpose edge. Needles’ butterfly emblem is elegantly sprinkled onto the upper, its purple embroidery beaming out against the deep black suede. A rear pull tab and neoprene booty system makes these easy to slip on and off, another practical feature of the Beatnik MOC. This collaborative pair, more so than others, can easily be dressed up or down. Heading to dinner with mates? No problem. Fancy a quick stroll through the woods? These have got you covered. The Beatnik is versatile to say the least and now with Needles’ presence, the silhouette has never looked as refined.
