Official Reebok Blacktop & Battleground Pump Thread With Releases Dates And More...UPDATE BATTLEGROU

Picked up my Boulevards yesterday from Villa in Philly. And some Blacktop shorts (they have shirts & shorts - not fantastic, but nice to see Reebok doing something when it comes to apparel in the Classic range).

Pics to come when I'm back in LA with the Battlegrounds as well. Looking like excess baggage to go back to Australia!
Fill me in on the blacktop clothing.. I've been trying to find some online, but can't find any. Anyone know?

The stuff I saw at Villa was ok. Shorts in light blue, red or teal. They have a panel down the leg that is like the patterned parts of the shoe. The light blue are very subtle, the other 2 have contrasting panels. There were tees as well, with the Blacktop logo and some spatter patterns on the front. I didn't like them too much (well, not enough to buy!).

I'll try to get pics up of the blue shorts soon.
 
Here are a couple of shots of the shorts. Sorry about the lighting - the hotel room is not exactly set up for good photos, and the flash changes the tone a little too. They're kind of a blue/green with a blue panel down the side (which has the "Blacktop pattern").

Hope this helps.

In case anyone was wondering, there's no actual Blacktop label, just a small Reebok Classic tag on the bottom of the right leg (which you can see in the top picture). From memory, the tees had Blacktop written on them (but the only colour seemed to match the Boulevards with the clear sole - which wasn't the CW I picked up).

I finally pulled the trigger on the black pair of Battlegrounds. Thanks to those that answered my questions a few days back. Paid $106.25 with 15% off.

Those aren't too bad for a Retro+ colour. Seems like they used a lot of restraint in keeping it predominantly white based and used the wild prints sparingly as opposed to making the whole damn shoe some wild print.
 
 
Yes, this color + version is confirmed for the end of the summer. 
Thanks very much

 I just got the white/purple version and I'll take also this: will drop only the 'carmine j6' knock-off :D
 
I usually don't like retro plus models or loud CWs but it's something about those Battlegrounds I love. Count me in for a pair.
 
Nice collection. I'm contemplating picking up the white Battlegrounds. Def going after that end of summer CW.
