Holiday Spirit: Reebok Trots Out Themed Sneakers
Reebok has put out a limited number of St. Patrick’s Day-themed sneakers, including
one with “Kiss Me I’m Irish” on the heel of its classic-leather, low-cut sneaker,
and one with a small image of a pint of beer on its NPC-Platinum low-cut sneakers,
according to Jay Fitzgerald of the BOSTON HERALD. Reebok “maintains the special
sneakers -– going for $70 a pair -– are being targeted toward the men’s market,
not boys,” and its “intent is only to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.” Reebok recently
started the holiday-themed sales with a Valentine’s Day sneaker and will soon
debut Easter-themed sneakers (BOSTON
HERALD, 3/16).
