Our last interview in Boston was really something special and a once in a lifetime kind of moment for us. In an amazing interview inside the Reebok archive, we sat down to talk with Michael Hesterberg, Design Director of Innovation at Reebok.

Drew White

The main goal of our trip was to bring conversations and the stories of designers behind the sneakers we love and wear so much; and also important people who move the local sneaker culture in their cities. Drew fits into these two categories. Today he is a footwear and apparel designer for Bodega – one of Boston's most famous sneaker and streetwear stores – and is one of the people behind the store's famous collaborations with the brands.

David Filar

We met David in front of the Boston Public Library, a historic place in the city, to talk about the sneaker he developed with his friend Marc – the Reebok Zig Kinetica II Edge. David worked at Vibram, a company that develops and licenses rubber soles, for almost 8 years, and this Zig was the first Reebok to have a Vibram sole developed specifically for it.

Gessica Justino

In 2016, for the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, adidas called four cariocas to create a Superstar in honor of the city. Gessica was one of them, and in our interview, she talked to us in detail about the creation process of the sneaker, showing us the symbols and stories that were inserted in this Rio native reinterpretation of the classic Superstar.

Dra. Ana Paula

Dr. Ana Paula has lived and breathed sports every day since she was little, and it was because of sports that she decided to pursue her profession in orthopedics. A runner and getting ready for her first marathon, Dr. Ana Paula sees sneakers as a tool to cultivate a healthy and active lifestyle, as well as being the key tool for doing what she loves – running.
