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.

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.
