Prada America’s Cup Inspires Packer x Reebok Answer IV Collab

Packer Shoes and Reebok team up again, this time inspired by late-’90s and early 2000s icons.

The latest Packer x Reebok collaborative effort taps the Answer IV. Influenced by Allen Iverson’s style and bravado, the latest Answer IV is also energized by the Prada America’s Cup. Released in 1997 and designed for the Prada Luna Rossa sailing team in the 1997 America’s Cup race, the luxury sneaker became a staple in elevated footwear through celebrities and athletes alike.

Packer and Reebok bring together the best of both worlds into Answer IV.

Prada America’s Cup

The Packer x Reebok Answer IV “Ultramarine” substitutes the shoe’s signature leather upper for a grey mesh, akin to the Prada sneaker. Ultramarine leather overlays influenced by Prada’s implementation of patent leather and subtle red details complete the colorway and homage.

The Packer x Reebok Answer IV “Ultramarine” releases exclusively on PackerShoes.com at 11 a.m. EST and at the Jersey City Packer location at noon EST on January 21. The shoe retails for $180 and will have a size range from 6.5 to 15. As always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
