Reebok, in collaboration with Eames Office, proudly unveils their final installment in a series that pays homage to the creative genius of Charles and Ray Eames. The Eames x Reebok Beatnik “Chalk” 100073330 stands as a fusion of iconic design and modern footwear innovation, celebrating a legacy that transcends time and disciplines.
Reebok has reimagined the Beatnik silhouette, a standout piece in their collection, through the lens of the Eames’ design principles. This design draws inspiration from the essence of relaxed beach days, reminiscent of the cultural innovation and expression of the 1950s and 60s, a period deeply influenced by the works of Eames.
The sandal showcases striking EAMES branding on the tactile canvas uppers, combining eye-catching design with functional superiority. The canvas uppers, sitting atop a robust rubber outsole, feature a shark-tooth pattern for enhanced grip and stability.
Functionality stands at the forefront of this design, with an adjustable strap providing an easy, breezy on-off experience, ensuring the sandals are as practical as they are stylish. The Beatnik “Chalk” adopts a neutral color palette, reflecting the Eames’ signature style of simplicity and elegance. Adorned with a subtle, criss-cross pattern, the textile upper pays tribute to the Eames’ flair for intricate yet understated design.
