Forget the limited edition Jordans and ultra-rare collabs—some of the most popular sneakers right now are retro classics you can easily buy at the mall. Whether it's the wildly-popular Adidas Samba, the Stan Smith, or the Nike Dunk, old school is omnipresent. But recently, a lesser-known retro sneaker has been popping up on celebrities, social media pages of in-the-know fashion enthusiasts, and even on dads reliving their high school days—and we found it on sale.
Of-the-moment kicks don’t typically get discounts, but the Reebok Club C 85 in white is on sale right now for as low as $46 on Amazon—up to 34% off the original $70 price. These classic white sneakers are backed by over 3,100 five-star ratings on Amazon from shoppers who are getting them for the first time while others are already on their "eighth pair." Sizing is limited, so if you see yours we’d recommend acting fast.
Reebok Unisex Club C 85 Sneaker, From $46 (was $70) on Amazon
Reebok’s Club C 85 sneakers were originally designed to be tennis shoes. They're neither as lean as the Sambas nor as chunky as Nike Air Force 1s, making them a Goldilocks pick that works with slim and baggy outfits alike. They have a cushioned EVA foam footbed and a leather upper with a perforated design that promotes breathability. Despite their court-ready construction, the cushioned comfort and grippy outsole are also suitable for a day spent on the go.
First introduced in the 1980s, some shoppers appreciated the nostalgia that comes with these sneakers. “Reeboks are fast becoming my favorite sneaker brand," a shopper wrote. "They’re made well, the leather feels buttery smooth, and, to be honest, they look like a pair I had as a kid in the '80s.” Another shopper wrote, “They are the same shoe I used exclusively for racketball in the ‘80s. I felt like I found an old friend.”
Many shoppers compared them favorably to other popular sneaker brands. “I got these to replace my On Cloud shoes, so the bar was set very high," a shopper stated. "They're super stylish and fit super comfortable. In terms of weight, they're slightly heavier than On Clouds, but much lighter than Nike Air Force 1s."
Although they're pushing 40, it's safe to say the Reebok Club C 85 is back, and the classic shoe hasn’t lost a step. Whether you wore them in your high school days when they debuted or you’re discovering them for the first time, they remain a timeless white sneaker that’s minimal but not boring. As the trend rises, stock will decrease, so make sure to get yours soon.
