We have seen solid black aka Blackout on various Nike models, and today Reebok will do the same on the Kamikaze III. Also known as Blackout, this Reebok Kamikaze III uses black leather uppers, black nubuck toe box, hexalite cushioning, and black patent leather around the toe box. The Reebok Kamikaze III Blackout is releasing in July, retail is $100.

You can have a fresh pair of any sneakers on, but if they aren’t laced right, that’s all thrown at the window. In this video, Swizz Beatz sits down and fills you in on how to lace your Reebok Kamikaze‘s, which all sneakerheads will know already. Just make sure to avoid the “Choke-e-man”.

Bounce guest blogger and Eastbay Sneakerhead Jordan Hagedorn (Yes, his business card actually reads “sneakerhead”–how bugged is that?) provided an introspective look back at the company’s November ’95 catalog today over on Bouncemag.com. The issue could be the Wausau, Wisconsin based brand’s most classic ever, as the cover features Santa’s elves polishing up the Air Jordan XI (11) and Reebok Kamikaze Mid. Inside the mag, you’ll see hoops kicks from Nike, Pony, Fila, and British Knight. Images via Jordan Hagedorn and Eastbay
