MSCHF is the master of disruptive innovation in the sneaker world. From their mind-bending projects like the reversible shoe to their unexpected partnerships like the vibrant "Big Red Boot (Yellow)" with Crocs, this brand, founded by a former Buzzfeed employee, has captured the hearts of both sneakerheads and attention-seekers. But perhaps their most exciting collaboration to date is the one with Reebok. Together, they breathe new life into the iconic Pump Omni Zone II, introducing the world to the Pump Omni Zone IX. What's so special? It features eight extra Pump bladders, making it the Omni Zone IX. MSCHF's branding adorns the shoe's exterior air chambers and outsole, and the signature Reebok type is etched into the traction. On the heel, you'll find "Boing Boing," a nod to the shoe's legendary bounce when it first hit the scene in the early 1990s.
To officially unveil this groundbreaking project, MSCHF has recruited none other than Dee Brown, the 1991 Dunk Contest champion who famously inflated the Omni Zone II on live television, helping make it a sensation. Joining him for a game of one-on-one is his son, Anakin, proving that Dee is not only a basketball legend but also a massive Star Wars fan. As they pump up their sneakers, their basketball attire inflates too, eventually causing them to float away into the horizon as Dee attempts a no-look dunk with his son trying to block him.
Both the white/blue/orange and the "Sunbleached" colorways of the MSCHF x Reebok Pump Omni Zone IX are set to drop on September 27th, 2023, available exclusively through a 24-hour Draw on the MSCHF website and the MSCHF App. The retail price for each pair is $250.
