Description

The Reebok Hi-Top Freestyle shoes with the iconic double straps became a defining fashion and fitness statement in the mid-1980s.


Originally designed as women’s aerobic shoes, they quickly crossed over into mainstream style, helped by the era’s fitness craze and music video culture. 


Worn with leggings, rolled-up jeans or leotards, the Freestyles were one of many symbols of the bold and energetic style of the 1980s.
