Allen Iverson’s time in the NBA saw the ‘76ers superstar dominate the court in his signature sneaker line with Reebok, leaving a mark on the league and the sneaker world. While Reebok quietly exited the performance basketball market after Iverson’s retirement, they’re revitalizing their entire performance category. They are reentering the basketball world with key signings, new signature lines, and a new inline sneaker that Shaq and AI have spearheaded. However, even if the strategy is to innovate in the performance space, Iverson’s retro models will continue to hit shelves into the new year, including this Notre Dame-themed Reebok Answer 3.
Taking inspiration from Iversons’ dreams of playing quarterback for the Fighting Irish, the silhouette comes clad in the colors of Notre Dame. A deep navy shade dominates the upper's quilted suede and tumbled leather paneling, with the two free-flowing sections separated by a golden lining. This same gold hue is applied to the Iverson logo atop the tongue, the Reebok Vector logo on the lateral collar, and the Iverson logo on the lateral heel.
A small hit of green pops on the plastic lace dubrae, which hosts a golden hit of Allen Iverson branding. Keeping in line with traditional Answer 3 colorways, the spine of the heel features a pull tab and Reebok Vector branding embroidered within. Down below, the white DMX-cushioned midsole gets accented by a navy and green hit near the toe and comes paired with a navy, green, and white outsole.
The Reebok Answer 3 Notre Dame will release on January 3, 2025, through Reebok and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is $140.
