Over the past few years, Reebok has been delivering some fantastic sneakers inspired by our favorite movies. There was a killer “Jurassic Park” collection inspired by dinosaurs and the visual style of the park itself, a paranormal-themed “Ghostbusters” collection, and an array of DC Comics shoes honoring various heroes and villains. It’s time for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter to put on some new shoes with Reebok’s latest collection of pop culture sneakers.

Today, Reebok and Warner Bros. have announced a new line of Harry Potter sneakers featuring imagery from the series, from the houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to the dark magic of Lord Voldemort himself. Deathly Hallows fans will find a shoe that pays homage to all three magical artifacts, and if you’re ready to fight Dementors, you’ll definitely want to wait to check out a sneaker that draws inspiration from the glowing Patronus spell.
Take a look at the Reebok Harry Potter sneaker collection below and find out when you can get your hands on them!
Welcome to Hogwarts!
- Club C 85 ($110) – The perfect introduction to Hogwarts, this versatile C-Club allows the user to choose their house. Each pair features interchangeable laces and embroidered patches featuring the crests and symbols of all four Hogwarts houses. As a nod to everyone’s favorite gamekeeper, Keeper of the Keys and Care of Magical Creatures teacher at Hogwarts, Hagrid, the internal language reads: “It’s not Hogwarts with you, Hagrid.”
No Harry Potter clothing collection would be complete without using the colors and symbols of the Hogwarts school houses: Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. Fans can choose which house they want to represent and be satisfied with their choice every time they look at their feet.

- Instapump Fury 95 ($250) – “He Who Must Not Be Name” inspires this Instapump Fury, which is obvious from the first glance of the shoes. The upper pays homage to Lord Voldemort’s devoted Death Eaters with black suede material and a visible Dark Mark, while also featuring snake and scale details reminiscent of Nagini and the house of Slytherin. Completing the shoe are various Voldemort-inspired accents, from the green material of the interior to silver accents representing his unforgettable source of life, unicorn blood.
Does Lord Voldemort wear shoes? Honestly, I don’t think that’s the case. If this were the case and he was playing wizarding basketball, he might wear the Instapump Fury 95 sneakers, which feature the Death Eater symbol, but it’s these subtle details that make these shoes look sinister.
I’m waiting for a guardian!
- Classic leather ($100) – Dark magic surrounds this classic leather that pays homage to the legendary Deathly Hallows. A fabric invisibility cloak is appropriately hidden on the inside of the tongue, a metal lace lock resembles the Resurrection Stone, and the Elder Wand is depicted on wood grain lace tips. There are secrets hidden throughout the figure that were only discovered during the search for the magical objects of the Deathly Hallows.
For those looking to collect the Deathly Hallows and become unstoppable, this pair of sneakers will get the job done. While I wish the colors weren’t so dark and the text didn’t make the shoe’s inspiration so obvious, there’s something appealing about their simplicity.

- Classic leather hexalite (MSRP $120, 100201813) – The Patronus Charm inspires Reebok’s new Classic Leather Hexalite model. The shoe’s upper features a gradient fade, inspired by the silver-blue vapor created when throwing a successful Patronus, complemented by the Patronus animals depicted on the tongue label. Finishing off the shoe are captivating glow-in-the-dark and reflective details that keep the wearer guided by light even in the darkest of environments. Available in unisex size.
Finally, we have what I think are the coolest shoes in the collection. With a color scheme inspired by the Patronus charm that stops dementors from stealing your soul, and glow-in-the-dark and reflective details that make them look especially cool, these Classic Leather Hexalite really do look like they’re from another world. I would open my wallet for them right away.
