American sportswear firm Reebok partners with athlete Myles Garrett

“Growing up admiring all-time greats like Allen Iverson, Shaq, and Shawn Kemp I’m extremely excited to be joining the Reebok family,” commented Garrett. “I really pride myself on having a lot of interests off the field so to be working with a brand that promotes individuality and encourages people to pursue the things that bring them joy is incredible. I’m looking forward to showcasing more of who I am on and off the field to help better establish the brand in performance and lifestyle.”

The announcement follows the launch of Reebok’s ‘Life is Not a Spectator Sport’ campaign that encourages people to pursue their passions, celebrate their individuality and become active participants in the world around them, the company said in a media release.

“Myles Garrett is one of those incredible all-around athletes who could be a standout in any sport - he just happened to choose football,” commented Caroline Machen, vice president, global brand marketing at Reebok. “We’re thrilled to welcome Myles to the Reebok family and shine a light on our shared ethos and passion for sport, fitness, fashion, pop-culture and activism. As we embark on an exciting new era here at Reebok, Myles will be a key player in bringing his own unique energy and story to our next chapter.”

During Cleveland’s 2022 all-star weekend last month, Garrett made his first official appearance with the brand at its ‘Bok Door’ event, helping to launch the commemorative Question Mid 25th Anniversary and all-new Instapump Fury Zone.

Throughout 2022, Garrett will be seen supporting key Reebok products across sport and lifestyle including the Classic Leather, Nano, Floatride, Question, Pump and more.
