Oh hell yeah!!! Ordered and captured. Anyone need a 16, it’s still there.
 
Still can’t find any more plate shoes out there since they discontinued, but that’s ok.

Reebok Data Analyst: We got incredible feedback from umpires about the Zig Magistrate. We can't keep them in stock! Everybody loves this shoe!

Reebok Baseball Shoe Product: Ok...we'll cancel them immediately. No point in manufacturing shoes that nobody likes or wants to buy...

Umpires: Well, it's been 6 months...my New Balance are falling apart...time for another pair of New Balance.

MLB: Did somebody say something? We couldn't hear anything because another Brinks truck just arrived and had its backup warning on while dumping sacks of cash...

The essential component you’re missing here, @SeeingEyeDog, is this – 

A bespectacled man, speaking in a German accent: “Zank you, Reebok, for yur zervice, and bringing ahr technology to zee feet of zee Americans, but ve have different plans for you. Zere is dis new... ah, novel zenzation called ‘CrossFit’ zat ve need to put yur brand upon. Because ve are German, ve cannot do anything... how you say?... ‘risky’ or ‘fun’... so ve need you to focus on zhis CrossFit, and leave ze heavy, black leather, boot-like shoes to ze American companies!” 

This bespectacled man represents Adidas, and because ath-leisure sales were on the cusp of exploding into a $155 BILLION market, they decided to pull Reebok out of all Team sports, and instead concentrate all those resources on ath-leisure products.
