Reebok celebrates new collection with pop-up ice rink in NYC
Last night, Reebok introduced its new Alter the Icons ‘Transparency’ collection with a celebratory one-night-only ice skating event in Manhattan.
Designed to represent our increasingly interconnected world, the collection marks a new level of experimentation for the brand, featuring a remix of their most iconic sneaker shapes through the addition of new colorways, accents, textures and materials.
The dynamic and unexpected urban setting of Reebok’s pop-up aptly reflected the collection’s risk-taking nature. True to ‘Transparency’ theme, a custom ice rink took center stage at the event, surrounded by 360-degree video projections and frozen sculptures that helped bring the ‘Transparency’ vision to life. The event also included appearances from musicians Childish Major, Tayla Parx, and DJs Amira & Kayla, who have all partnered with the Alter the Icons campaign.
Young and gifted skaters from Harlem Figure Skating and Harlem Youth Ice Hockey also delighted the pop-up goers with surprise on-ice performances.
