I remember reading somewhere that the more you immobilize the ankles, the more stress goes into the knees. So if they're just compression socks, maybe not?

Reebok may not be in the best financial shape these days. The most valuable asset they have might be a recognizable brand name to offset a ton of debt. If they were solidly above water Baron Davis couldn't front enough money to buy them.

according to dan runcie:
Master P enters a crowded field. When the news of Adidas selling Reebok first broke, Authentic Brands Group (ABG) was named as a potential buyer. In 2019, Shaquille O'Neal, an ABG partner, expressed interest in acquiring Reebok since Adidas has "diluted [the brand] so much to where it's almost gone." Other potential buyers include VF Corp, which just bought Supreme for $2.1 billion, and Anta Sports, the third-largest sportswear company by revenue. But those holding companies have portfolios of brands that get sold primarily in department stores. Holding companies succeed on breadth and scale. Reebok's fate could stay the same if it became one of the dozens of brands under those umbrellas.Master P and Baron Davis offer a different value prop. Percy Miller's business ventures are mostly entrepreneurial. He builds from the ground-up. Percy Miller accumulates his wealth by owning a large share of smaller pies. Reebok is not a smaller pie, but the brand still needs focus. Master P has succeeded in smaller-scale consumer-packaged goods and apparel lines, so that helps. An all-Black Reebok ownership group will inspire some business and get great PR, but this relaunch would still need more. Reebok's comeback needs a level of focus that the brand hasn't had since its 'Rbk' lifestyle days.Will the deal go through? Master P told CNBC that Reebok is worth $500 million and there's no way he would pay $2.4 billion. It's a negotiation process, but I doubt Adidas sells for just 20% of its asking price. I won't be surprised if ABG, VF Corp, or another buyer is willing to pay $1.5 billion or more for the apparel company that made over $2 billion in revenue in 2019.
