Cloud 10 Status: Emporio Armani x Reebok

Sometimes collaborations just work, think of the mash up between Jil Sander & Uniqlo, Sperry and Band of Outsiders Yohji Yahmamoto and Adidas or Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton.  Shit sometimes the collaborations are better than the labels on their own...can anyone say Fila??  Anyway I guess Emporio Armani and Reebok teaming up to produce athletic wear will be like Adidas' Y-3 line (super dope line if you haven't seen any of their stuff before).  I am definitely digging the black sneakers (pictured above)  they produced though, the subtle but bold use of the Armani logo is fire.  The mix of patent leather, mesh and regular leather screams DYLAN, DYLAN, DYLAN!! 

More images after the JUMP!!

"The collaboration has expanded to include two lines: Reebok x Emporio Armani, which includes 4 shoe styles, and Reebok x EA7, an activewear line with chic nylon tops, sweats, and yes, more sneakers. The collections officially launch tomorrow night and hit stores in August, but we've got exclusive photos for you below, and more after the jump."
