If there's a shoe befitting of the superstar treatment within the  range, it's surely the Classic Leather. Sure there's shoes from the Pump series or the Club C that could also vie for icon status, but the Classic Leather is unbeatable when it comes to cultural resilience. Through the 30 years in existence the Classic Leather has managed to pop-up in many places. From the feet of retirees to UK club kids and everything in-between, the Classic Leather has been there and done that.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the most classic of Reebok Classics, we've got this throwback original. There's no fancy additions, no special features, no gum soles – these are built to be as if you just walked into the Footlocker in 1983 chasing a pair of black sneakers to go try this new trend of "jogging". From leather uppers to the terry lining, taffeta side label and the bi-coloured outsole – for many this is where Reebok starts and finishes, a true icon deserving of respect.
