During his playing days, Iverson ushered in a new era of authenticity backed up by incredible play. Reebok was with him every step of the way, including after his career. Iverson is now the Vice President of Reebok Basketball (serving beside the President of Reebok Basketball, Shaquille O'Neal).

Iverson is the subject of a new Prime Video docu-series titled Allen Iv3rson. Today, Reebok is celebrating the pillar of its basketball division with a limited-edition sneaker pack.
