Kendrick Lamar Looks to Unite Bloods and Crips With New Reebok Shoes
Kendrick Lamar's good kid, m.A.A.d. city and To Pimp a Butterfly flipped the rap game on its head. Now K-Dot is looking to create change in the gang scene with a brilliant new pair of sneakers.
The "Alright" MC helmed the upcoming Kendrick Lamar x Reebok Ventilator design with a message of peace, namely between rival Los Angeles gangs the Bloods and the Crips.
With an off-white base, the word "red" is sewn onto the heel of the right shoe and "blue" onto the left heel—the colors that represent the Bloods and the Crips, respectively. The words "Kendrick Lamar" and "TDE" are inscribed on the front of the tongue along with the word "neutral" in bold font on the inside. Peep the sneaks below:
