  2. Reebok International Limited is a British producer of athletic footwear, apparel, and accessories and is currently a subsidiary of Adidas. The name comes from Afrikaans/Dutch spelling of rhebok, a type of African antelope or gazelle. The company, founded in Bolton in 1895, was originally called Mercury Sports but was renamed Reebok in 1958. The company's founders, Joe and Jeff Foster, found the name in a dictionary won in a race by Joe Foster as a boy; the dictionary was a South African edition, hence the spelling.

    Reebok surged in popularity in 1982 after the introduction of the Freestyle athletic shoe, which was specifically designed for women and came out when the aerobics fitness craze started. Not only was the Reebok Freestyle popular as athletic wear, but also on the streets as casual wear because of its comfort and styling. As a result the Freestyle became an icon of the 1980s fashion scene with hi-top versions (including two velcro straps at the top) and colors including white, black, red, yellow, and blue. Reebok continues to produce the Freestyle to this day as it is popular with cheerleading, aerobic dancing, the gym, and other consumers.

    Following the height of the Freestyle success, Reebok also introduced a popular athletic shoe for men, called the Ex-O-Fit. Similar to the Freestyle, it came in low-top and hi-top versions; however, unlike the Freestyle hi-top with two velcro closure straps, the Ex-O-Fit only had one strap. One of the designers of this early footwear was the founder's son, David Foster.

  3. reebok zenon runner has lasted me daily training and normal use from january.

  4. From my experience, Reebok is a far inferior poduct

  5. It really depends on what you like, when it comes to how comfortable they are. I typically stay with Asics. I'll admit it, I'm a running shoe snob. xD But I really like them because they are VERY difficult to tear and mine have lasted me for about 500 miles of running.

    So, personally, I would go for Asics, but Reebok is, obviously, also a show company and I haven't heard any horrible reviews about their shoes.
