You won’t find a name more respected in the sneaker industry than Gary Warnett<\/strong>. A gifted writer with a strong sense of humor and encyclopedic mind of cultural information, the late author is remembered by friend Simone Smyth in the form of a bespoke Reebok Classic Leather<\/strong> designed in his memory.<\/p>\n Denoted by nods to Warnett inside and out, the shoe sees BEDFORD printed on the insole to note Gary’s hometown. While Warnett had actually crafted a criminally minded Classic Leather collab himself back in 2013, this pair touches on that with prison detailing in the form of embroidered arrows and a single black eyelet. An icy outsole and Moomin design on the tongue cap off the colorway, while a metal border with plastic overlay covers the branding as an archival detail not seen since the Reebok Ripples from the 1990s — a small detail Gary would truly appreciate.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This GWARIZM edition – named after Warnett’s acclaimed personal blog – will not be released but gifted to friends and family of Gary. Get a better look at this homage pair below.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
