Shaquille O’Neal And Allen Iverson Look To Relaunch JAY-Z’s S. Carters And 50 Cent’s G-Unit Sneakers
NBA Hall of Famers, Shaquille O’Neal and Allen Iverson, who also work with Reebok Basketball as President and Vice President have recently revealed that there could be a relaunching of sneakers associated with Hip-Hop heavyweights, JAY-Z and 50 Cent.
The two former basketball players appeared in a recent episode of Sneaker Shopping With Complex. While the host discussed how sneakerheads and fans alike, responded to JAY-Z wearing a pair of his Reebok S. Carter Collection sneakers at this year’s Super Bowl game, the pair was asked if there is a second coming of the at-the-time popular footwear. Shaq did respond and seemingly is interested in making that happen if the “Hard Knock Life” billionaire wants it.
The TNT commentator said, “We know JAY-Z. JAY-Z, if you watching, we wanna holla at cha.”
Iverson AKA “The Answer” chimed in by stating that when the footwear was released in 2003, he was a fan of the sneakers and he “wore them all summer.” He added that since he was part of the Reebok family, he and his crew were given custom-made S. Carters.
When the collection, which resembled white Gucci sneakers from 1984, was initially released, it sold 10,000 pairs just hours after they went on sale.
The next topic of discussion was 50 Cent’s G-Unit Reebok Collection. Would that be another collection that can be seen in stores and online? Around the same time as the release of the S. Carters, the G-Unit Boss also signed a deal that Reebok to release a collection that was stamped with the G-Unit insignia and had several styles that were included with it.
Shaq also stated interest in reaching out to the television executive and gave a shout in the video. “50, when I call you, holla. Jay-Z, we’ll be calling. We definitely want to give the fans and the consumers what they want.” He assured us that they would make it happen as they anticipate having a conversation with both men. He also stated that there will be new styles and more technology included with future footwear for the company.
