If you’ve got your Father’s Day gift all set, then surely, you need to take care of what to wear for Father’s Day. It’s a momentous occasion, whether you’re a new dad or an expectant dad — or simply celebrating your own father or grandfather. And because it’s a day spent with family — hopefully enjoying an amazing meal or a special activity — that means you need to look sharp. More than sharp, even — presentable, stylish and classic. We think our picks will have you covered when it comes to what to wear for Father’s Day.

Reebok and OBEY unite for the ultimate streetwear design
Reebok and OBEY announce new collection
three sneakers in the street

Inspired by classic and modern sports silhouettes, Reebok has turned to streetwear brand OBEY to cocreate the ultimate streetwear collection. In recent years, Reebok has brought retro sneakers and designs back into the mainstream, making them some of the latest “it” pieces. In this new collection, Reebok adds some edge to the design of their typically classic footwear. Both brands have utilized this collection to hone in on their self-expression and empowerment beliefs to create pieces every rebel will want to own. In this new partnership, both brands have announced three new sneakers that are as distinct and unique as their intended wearers. 
OBEY x Reebok FW24

As part of their Fall/Winter 2024 campaign, the two brands have announced three new footwear options for the ideal streetwear touch. The first pair in the collection, the OBEY x Reebok BB450, is a burgundy premium leather that takes after some of Reebok’s classic basketball sneakers. In the BB450, both brands opted for suede accents, speed hook eyelets, premium leather lining, and a branded sock liner and hangtag. Sticking to the trending seasonal colors, the second option comes in the dark green OBEY x Reebok Club C 85. The Club C 85 features premium leather, metal lace eyelets, black laces, and OBEY’s window box logo. This sneaker finds its inspiration from the brand’s iconic tennis sneaker.
