Reebok is entering an exciting new chapter of its history with the formation of Reebok LTD, a collection of sneakers made from elevated materials with premium Italian craftsmanship. The line aims to evolve core classic Reebok models like the Reebok Club C into cutting-edge luxury footwear and tap into Reebok’s vast archives.

On November 15th, Reebok LTD will be releasing an updated version of 1999’s Reebok DMX Run 6 in two new eye-catching colorways as part of a collaboration with Korean fashion label KANGHYUK.

Clearly, the Reebok LTD label is already living up to its promise.

Co-designed by Reebok Senior Footwear Designer Evan Belforti and KANGHYUK founders Kanghyuk Choi and Sanglak Shon, the Reebok DMX Run 6 Modern comes in KANGHYUK’s signature red-based colorway, and has notable design features like an asymmetrical profile showcasing “warped” details and an extended Reebok vector emblem. The sneaker’s distinctive look is further enhanced by a chunky midsole with intricate webbing. Like the original version from ‘99, the new Reebok DMX Run 6 Modern features Reebok’s DMX technology, a system of air cushioning that runs through connected pods from heel to toe with each step.

KANGHYUK and Reebok LTD’s new Reebok DMX Run 6 Modern is one of several collaborations under the Reebok LTD umbrella. In October, Reebok LTD teamed up with Israeli fashion designer Hed Mayner for two avant-garde versions of the Reebok LTD Classic Leather sneaker. Both colorways feature hand-washed leather uppers and an exaggerated tongue strap that drapes over the shoe in place of a traditional lacing system.

With a mission to redefine the space between sport and luxury, Reebok LTD will continue to release new and exciting collaborations throughout the remainder of 2023 and beyond that set a new standard for style and performance.
