Muji and Reebok Just Dropped a Super-Affordable, Super-Minimalist Sneaker

In the race for the most perfectly minimalist shoe, a new frontrunner has appeared: Behold the Muji x Reebok Court Sneaker—a sleek, stripped-down variation on the classic Reebok Club C 85 that’s available right now. Not only monochromatic but totally devoid of the usual company branding, the crisp all-white kicks perfectly embody Muji’s famously simple design ethos.

Muji

The no-nonsense Japanese basics brand has been consistently delivering high-quality, unpretentious housewares and apparel since its founding in 1980, earning a glowing reputation worldwide for its affordable textiles, linens, stationery, and more. A collaboration with a sneaker brand seems a little out of left field for Muji on the face of it, but when you consider the simple, streamlined comforts of the Reebok Club C, the pairing makes perfect sense.

The sturdy Club C is hardly the most glamorous shoe around, but it has earned a devoted following for its solid build and versatility. Muji has taken the already minimalistic silhouette and made it even more restrained and spartan, removing the Reebok logos from the upper, the tongue, and the heel, and trading out the typical gum soles for an all-white base. If that seems a little anonymous, that’s very much the point—this is an elemental shoe that’s proud to be as austere and inconspicuous as possible.

The Muji x Reebok ‘Court Sneaker’ retails for a reasonable $79.99 and is available exclusively via Muji’s webstore.
