Since its founding in 1912, Universal Pictures has been a powerhouse in the film industry. The studio’s early works brought to life or reimagined legendary horror figures like Dracula and Frankenstein’s monster. This Halloween, fans of these iconic Universal monsters can celebrate their love for these characters with their footwear. Reebok and Universal Monsters have collaborated for “Boktober,” introducing five distinctive shoe designs inspired by these legendary creatures.
Reebok x Universal Monsters InstaPump Fury 94 Mid Footwear | ReebokIn honor of the film’s 70th anniversary, Reebok has reimagined its InstaPump Fury shoes to reflect the Gill-man from Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954). The swamp-inspired mossy green and black palette mirrors the amphibian villain’s murky habitat. Priced at $220, this pair stands as the priciest in the collection.
Reebok x Universal Monsters Pump TZ Basketball Footwear | ReebokPriced at $180, the Pump TZ basketball shoes cater to fans of Frankenstein. The design pays homage to the iconic monster with stitched details along the seams and metal accents on the collars, reminiscent of the creature’s signature bolts.
Universal x Reebok BB 4000 II Basketball Footwear | ReebokThe Dracula-themed BB 4000 basketball shoes boast a sleek leather design, starting in black and dark red hues. Over time, they transition to a vivid blood red, making them the most dynamic in the collection. Priced at $130, these shoes also include custom sock liners and tongue labels.
Universal x Reebok Club C Bulc Footwear | ReebokAmong the most budget-friendly options is the Club C Bulc shoes, priced at $120. The dark-brown suede mimics the fierce werewolf’s fur from The Wolf Man (1941). Bloodstain details on the inner collar and scratch marks on the tongue enhance the eerie aesthetic.
Universal x Reebok Club C Megacourt Footwear | ReebokRounding out the collection is the $120 Club C Megacourt shoes, inspired by the bride from Bride of Frankenstein (1935). The design draws from her iconic hairstyle, featuring a solid black base, distressed laces, and white stitching for a dramatic effect.
