Word of the Reebok G6's return didn't come from some big flashy launch event — it was casually confirmed by Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda during an interview clip on @realreportshow. That detail is arguably more interesting than the shoe itself: a sneaker that once rode 50 Cent and G-Unit's momentum straight to the top of the hip-hop sneaker scene is now making its comeback in a way that feels as low-key as a conversation between friends.
Back in 2003, Reebok's partnership with 50 Cent turned the G6 into one of the most iconic rapper sneakers of the era. Its significance went beyond sales numbers — it paved the way for musicians to officially break into the sneaker industry, and gave an entire generation of G-Unit fans a sneaker they could truly call their own.
The 2026 version sticks to the original identity: a white leather upper paired with grey suede overlays, accented with pops of red, white, and blue, plus the G-Unit lettering and logo kept intact. This marks the G6's first return since its original release, and the design plays it straight with a faithful OG recreation rather than reinventing the wheel.
The Reebok G-Unit G6 "OG" comes in the White/Blue/Red colorway, style code 100289469, and drops August 20, 2026 via Reebok.com and select retailers, priced at $130.
