But echoes of the past can still be seen through an updated lens. Insightful eyes may have caught the silhouette\u2019s \u201990s inspiration right off the bat when Angel debuted the gleaming \u201cSilver\u201d pair last August. The molded exoskeleton upper\u2019s layered appearance takes notable design strokes from the famed Mobius line. And the synonymous Energy Return System (ERS) that graced the Reebok Pump Omni Zone and numerous other compositions across the late \u201980s returns in 2025 to outfit the midsole. Plus, a duo of nitrogen-infused SuperFloat cushioning elements at the heel and forefoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"825430\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-825430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-720x900.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-864x1080.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A1-1638x2048.jpg 1638w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"825431\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-825431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-720x900.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-864x1080.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.slamonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Reebok-engine-A2-1639x2048.jpg 1639w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the coming months, more colorways will appear and more signings to Team RBK.B will be announced.
