Reebok Ex-O-Fit Hi SG Strap

It’s almost Christmas, and everyone needs some much needed time off from work, and from the Kanyeezy hype, which by the way has a new release date of April 1 (or so a new rumor monger at Portland HQ told us). So that means you still have a bit to go.

These Reebok Ex-O-Fit Hi SG Straps, though, drop in February. They have some Mr. West feel to them, no? With these, the Terry Kennedy Society sneakers, and the Yeezy in April, there are now some very real fashion options if you decide to take that lunar vacation.

Look for the Reebok Ex-O-Fit Hi SG Straps drop in white, pink, silver, gold, and black in February, for $90 at Footaction and reebok.com. For April, a red and purple version will hit the streets. Check the jump for images. A little femmy? Or a little awesome?
