‘Hunter x Hunter’ Teams With Reebok on Sneaker Collection 

Reebok has announced an upcoming collaboration with Viz Media that reimagines five of the brand’s iconic footwear silhouettes, all inspired by “Hunter x Hunter.”

The Japanese manga series follows Young Gon as he takes on a dangerous exam to become an elite adventurer. As the story continues, Gon makes friendships that get him through difficult challenges. Adding to this theme of partnership, “Hunter x Hunter” has collaborated with Reebok.   

Reebok’s latest collaborative venture includes an assortment of graphic T-shirts, hoodies and five footwear sets. Each piece takes on a colorway that is inspired by a character or place in the series. Every set is completed with a Hunter Association emblem.

The Hunter x Hunter Nano X3 Adventure takes inspiration from the Hunter Association, the training institution for hunters. The silhouette is colored in white and black colorway with red accents along the angled sole and lace-up closure. The $160 set was finished with recognizable brand detailing like license symbols on the tongue. 

Retailing for $130, the Hunter x Hunter Beatnik is dedicated to Netero, a renowned martial artist who only wears socks and sandals. The backless silhouette features blue bindings and a red embroidered graphic along the off-white canvas upper. 

The Hunter x Hunter LX2200 resembles Gon, with a tonal green colorway.  Orange piping mimics the main character’s uniform. Additional detailing includes his badge number, 405, seen on the inside of the tongue and triangle webbing representing Gon’s backpack straps. The set will retail for $120.

The Hunter x Hunter Club C 85 echos the look of Skater Kid Killuawhi, which is a popular style for skateboarders. The $110 sneaker includes a tonal purple suede colorway with a mesh toe cutout that is similar to the one the skater kid is seen wearing during the series. The character is further represented through an electrical detail on the footbed and a set of reflective laces that commend his electricity expertise.

Lastly, the Hunter x Hunter Instapump Fury rounds out the collection with a silhouette inspired by the series’ villain, Hisoka. The $200 set includes a white silhouette with pink and purple textured panels and various suit symbols around the pair similar to those seen on the character.

The Reebok x Hunter x Hunter collection will be released on the brand’s website on March 22.
