I do believe Swizz has a lot of input. We know he is not a fashion guru or really experienced in the shoe industry. I believe in Reebok but they CAN do much better with these colors. People hate that they're dropping new colors along with the OG. C'mon folks....the shoe hasn't been retroed in over 15 years. Do you REALLY expect them to release JUST the OG color and that's it? Even the OG designer wanted another color but didn't follow through because of some issues with the company at the time. I'm just disappointed with their choice in these new retro + colors. I wish someone would photoshop some colors like a all black upper with white contrast stitching and either a gum bottom or ice sole. I WONDER how that would look on this shoe

Citysole has the orlando colorway for $70 (sizes 8,8.5,9,9.5,10.5, and 12), i think shipping is 10 dollars, so total would be $80 shipped

swizz beats has NO imput whatsoever....
thats like nike hiring john mayer and saying john was the man behind our recent retro line up...
but if you guys really think he is the reason the kamikaze, shaqs, and answers were retroed then reebok won
talk about the public eye not being too bright

He does carry the title as "Creative Director". I'm sure he does have some input. This retro craze has been going on for awhile and Reebok finally decides to release their most coveted shoes. He had to have SOME influence.

He does have influence in some way or ways (at least in regards to Shaq). Shaq told the story of how Swizz came to him and asked him to work with Reebok again. If I remember right, I think Shaq had already turned Reebok down. Then, Swizz talked to him because apparently they are bros, and he convinced them that the people really wanted a chance to buy his sneaker from so long ago and so Shaq relented.

You really think Swizz woke up one day and decided to go talk to Shaq out the blue? Reebok gave him some $$ and told him to go wave it in Shaq's out of shape face and see what he'd say. Swizz nothing but Reebok's lil' puppet. As far as them being brothers....every black man considers the next black man his "brother." Don't believe everything you hear in them interviews, they're already programmed and told how to respond to those same questions they're asked in every sneaker interview.
Swizz is to Reebok what Ronald McDonald was to Mickey D's in the 80s and 90s. A clown they have to represent their brand and make the lil' kids buy their products. Nothing more, nothing less.

All I said is Shaq told a story. You are having one crazy, insane argument with yourself.

LOL "Swizz is to Reebok what Ronald Mcdonald was to Mickey D's"....I'm SURE this type of role WOULD be a insult to his intelligence. He has a Ego like most of the people in his industry. He shows himself going to Reebok corporate meetings on his instagram. Unless he likes to act or he likes wasting his time sitting in a chair and listening to heads talk....he has SOME input. *Just LOOK at ALL the Art incorporated into the classic models* WE got to admit that prior to his arrival in the last few years. Reebok barely had any advertisements. Now the interest in the brand has risen with him. It just my 2 cents but I think the "puppet" label is something he doesn't fit under with Reebok.
