This holiday 2009 season, Christmas is in full effect, because Reebok have been giving us many treats to put under our trees. This time, Reebok teamed up with Japan’s finest, X-Large, to create the X-Large x Reebok Pump Omni Lite. These Pump Omni Lites feature a clean white/black colorway, complete with a subtle gradient effect. Blue tones accent the classic colorway, especially where X-Large put their initials at the side heel. These Pumps will release December 4th at all X-Large locations in Japan for a fine price of about two bills.
