KAROL G brings her distinctive visual identity to one of Reebok’s most recognizable silhouettes with the KAROL G x Reebok Freestyle Hi. Continuing her long-term partnership with the brand, the Colombian superstar reworks the iconic high-top through the vibrant aesthetic of her Tropicoqueta era, giving the classic a bold orange makeover.
The sneaker forms part of Born Classic. Worn Together. Reebok’s wilder Classics campaign, with KAROL G serving as its star and creative muse. The campaign centres on individuality, self-expression and community, using Reebok’s heritage silhouettes to explore how iconic styles continue to connect different generations.
The Orange Freestyle Hi
The orange Freestyle Hi keeps the instantly recognisable high-top construction that made the model a Reebok icon since its introduction in the 1980s, while KAROL G’s colourful aesthetic gives it a completely different energy. The padded high-top shape and signature double ankle straps remain central to the silhouette, creating a familiar foundation for the collaboration.
The vibrant orange colourway connects directly with the visual world oc Tropicoqueta, KAROL G’s colourful new creative era. Her project draws heavily on Latin culture, vivid colours and playful visual references, making the Freestyle Hi feel like a natural extension.
A Classic Through KAROL G’s Lens
The appeal of the collaboration comes from the contrast between the Freestyle’s heritage and KAROL G’s contemporary perspective. Originally created as a women’s fitness sneaker, the silhouette eventually moved far beyond the gym to become an established part of fashion and streetwear culture.
Now, KAROL G gives the model another chapter. She lets colour and personality do the work, showing how a decades-old Reebok icon can still feel relevant when a new generation puts its own identity behind it.
The KAROL G x Reebok Freestyle Hi is available right now for £90 through Reebok.com and select retailers.
