“I think Reebok is being undervalued. I left Nike as a 22 year old kid representing myself and made the jump to Reebok, which took a chance on me as a creative and as an athlete.” said Davis, speaking to the outlet. “I want the people I know athletes, influencers, designers, celebs to sit at the table with me.”
