Write. Erase. Repeat.
CANTON, Mass.-(Business Wire)-October 1, 2008 - Want to tell everyone what your game is all about without saying a word? Now you can. Today Reebok launches its new ATR ‘Talkin Krazy’ performance basketball footwear, available exclusively at Champs Sports stores. The shoe retails for $80.
Reebok has taken “talking trash†to a whole new level with these kicks. The Reebok ATR ‘Talkin’ Krazy’ footwear features a dry-erase upper that allows you to write your favorite message directly on the kicks. The Talkin Krazy is sold with a dry erase marker, so it can easily wipe clean to start again. The skills to back up the talk… sold separately.
To support the launch of the ATR Talkin Krazy, Reebok and Champs Sports are teaming up on a national marketing campaign that incorporates retail, print and digital advertising. The digital campaign is highlighted on the new microsite, www.talkkrazy.com.
