In our recent interview with Shaq, we learned that O’Neal didn’t know that today’s young hoopers favor low-tops until his son Shareef put him on. That insight helped influence the development of the Reebok Engine A, the model that signaled Reebok’s return to the performance hoops space at the top of last year. It also appears to have made its mark on the brand’s retro output.

Here we have an all-new Low version of the Reebok Shaqnosis, Shaq’s fifth signature Reebok sneaker and his most iconic by general consensus. The sneaker originally released in 1995 as part of Reebok’s Mobius Collection and epitomizes what many remember as the brand’s golden era across multiple sports, anchored by black and white colorways and aggressive, futuristic, and in this case hypnotizing design language.

The Shaqnosis Low maintains the distinguishable black and white ripples of the OG, though the collar is chopped off to better suit today’s preferences. Red-accented Reebok logos appear on the tongue, spine, and outsole, while the Dunkman shows up in white-on-black just above the toe box.

The last high-top version of the Shaqnosis OG dropped in 2020 and was highly sought after. The Low has sell-out potential as well and could prove even more desirable among true hoopers thanks to its favored height. The Shaqnosis recently made headlines thanks to sneaker free agent Steph Curry, who wore a pair pre-game against Orlando. It’s plausible Reebok athletes like Angel Reese and Matas Buzelis could continue that momentum by lacing up the Low in-game soon.

The Reebok Shaqnosis Low “Black/White” releases January 22nd for $130 USD via Reebok. Return to our Where To Buy section below for purchase links on that date.
