Fair enough, they are not Reebok Pump, but they are Shaq related. And to carry on with the Shaq theme, which featured a pair of Limited Edition Shaq Attaq Reebok Pump (M40173), I thought I'd post a video of what the Zebra style Reebok Shaqnosis OG look like on Feet (being worn). So here you go. What do you think? Under Hypnosis to buy? Or just an ugly pair of boats to give a miss.
Reebok Shaq Attaq Pump Basketball Shoes
Limited Edition "Shaq Attaq" Reebok Pump are, of course, dedicated to Basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal. Rich in basketball history, they are a super padded pair of Reebok Pump shoes which offer superb ankle support. Excellent for doing what they were supposedly made for, which is playing Basketball in. Other than for Basketball, they are a great shoe for just wearing while out and about, which is how most people wear them these days. They have "SHAQ" written at the back with a picture of him dunking a basketball (See picture below). This sewn artwork is also present on a little tag that hangs from the boot.
Some styles of Reebok Pump Shaq Attaq (example 1,2,3 and 4), like the ones picture here, have a partially speckled side sole. All of them have huge tongues and plastic lace holders. The uppers are a mix of suede and leather. The pair pictured here are available in sizes starting from a UK 7.5 and go up to a UK 10, although now in 2018 / 19, they a harder to find in the most popular sizes. And if you do find them they are expensive. In terms of how big they go up in size, I believe an adults size 13 or 14 is the largest. Those are available in many different colours from white and blue, to Black/Azure.
By most accounts Shaq Attaq Reebok Pumps are the same as most pairs of Reebok Pump, in that they are really well made. However, one reviewer did complain that the quality was sub par, and his pair have come apart at the side of the sole. All other reviews are excellent, so whether this was just a one-off and down to some kind of quality control issue is unknown, but is a definite possibility. Update on this issue: The seller on the receiving end of the negative review was suspected of selling fakes, so be sure to only buy from reputable sellers and websites to be sure of grabbing a pair that are 100% genuine.

The Person Who Brought Us Reebok Pump
Who invented Reebok Pump? That's a question that would have probably had a lot of people stumped if it wasn't for the Internet. First designed as a Basketball shoe, and then just worn by anyone and everyone, they were designed with a vision of providing added comfort and support. These aspects were to be at the forefront, their two main features. And that's where the Pump came in, or an Air Bladder as the inventor, Paul Litchfield calls it. Watch the video below to hear it from the man himself.
