The updated version of Represent’s best-selling Reptor sneaker, the new style is inspired by the essence of New York City’s Wall Street financial hub and “stands as a testament to urban opulence and contemporary sophistication,” the company said.
Crafted from a premium Italian leather and suede mixed upper, Reptor 2 ‘Notes’ also features an open mesh tongue and ballistic nylon side panels and collar, all in varying hues of brown reminiscent of dollar bills. The toe box subtly showcases laser perforated “x” details, a discreet nod to the collaboration.
Plus, an integrated stash pocket on the tongue serves as a homage to the wealth and secrets of Wall Street, under which each pair is uniquely numbered, with only 300 pairs made. Represent branding is displayed with a molded logo to the heel, and tonal Initial to the side wrapped panel.
And the leather in sock is digitally printed with a New York City street map, with StockX green and Represent branding, and the shoe is finished with tonal and antique white double lacing.
Represent added that each pair is StockX Verified and comes with the marketplace’s signature verification tag. The sneakers can be stored in the provided dust bag, which takes further inspiration from Wall Street with a design inspired by a Bank of New York money bag. The shoes also come with a Represent dollar as a special keepsake from the drop.
“On the heels of a successful partnership in London, we’re joining forces with Represent once again to bring something new and exciting across the pond,” Jerry Gaines, senior director of brand marketing at StockX, said in a statement. “As one of the fastest-growing brands on StockX, Represent is at the forefront of current culture. It’s always been our goal to provide access to the products and brands people want and Represent is very much one of those brands.”
Beginning August 8, Represent will be taking over the StockX store in NYC at 237 Lafayette St for two weeks following the release. Influencer and sneakerhead Qias Omar will be hosting an in-store meet-and-greet and raffle giveaway August 8 from 12 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., giving store visitors the chance to win a pair of the Reptor 2 ‘Notes’ or StockX site credit.
This news comes one month after Represent dropped a 20-piece collection featuring footwear, ready-to-wear and accessories with fellow UK-based brand Duke + Dexter .
On Tuesday, StockX revealed the fastest-growing brands across its sneakers, shoes and more for the first half of 2024 in its “Big Facts: Brands Making Moves” report.
