“This isn’t just a shoe, it’s my style, my story, and my stamp on the game,” said Angel Reese. “I wanted to design a basketball shoe that elevates performance, innovation, style, and creative expression, all at once. Reebok and I built something that’s true to who I am, and I hope it pushes others to stand in their power too. At the end of the day, it’s built for basketball – made to move and perform at the highest level.”
Engineered to support Reese’s relentless energy on the court and built to inspire and impress, the Angel Reese 1 delivers undeniable style with elite-level performance.

Designed in full collaboration with Reese, the Angel Reese 1 redefines the signature shoe narrative with innovative design at the forefront that blends Reebok hoops heritage with her style influence. The Angel Reese 1 takes design inspiration from Reebok’s Mobius line, evolving the Exoskeleton Upper into the shape and angelic finish of a ‘wing’, with color palettes and materials that reflect Reese’s legacy. The Angel Reese 1 is as bold and expressive as the athlete herself, with a strong style identity that moves easily from the court to the street.
The first drop will include three distinct colorways reminiscent of Reese’s multi-faceted personality including: ‘Diamond Dust’, ‘Mebounds’, and ‘Receipts Ready’.

- ERS™: a multi-component technology system built around a lightweight EVA midsole that delivers stability and flexibility. Strategically placed pods of nitrogeninfused SuperFloat™ foam in the heel and forefoot absorb impact and provide excellent energy return for all-game comfort and bounce.
- TPU Stability Cup: Located in the heel ensures the structure needed for players, like Reese, who thrive on physicality and power.

About Angel Reese
Angel Reese, NCAA Champion and two-time WNBA All-Star, is one of basketball’s brightest superstars already making a significant impact both on and off the court. While her on-court stats are impressive, including setting the WNBA record for the most consecutive double-double games as a rookie and becoming the fastest player to reach 600 points and 600 rebounds in her sophomore season, her off-court endeavors have transcended the sport. After gracing the cover of Vogue earlier this year, receiving honors like being named one of Harper’s Bazaar’s Icons, BET’s Sportswoman of the Year, and securing long-term partnerships with brands like Reebok, Reese’s, Beats, and more, Reese has become a cultural force growing the game and bridging the intersection between women’s sports and the larger cultural zeitgeist. Beyond her achievements in business and on the court, Reese is a fierce advocate for gender equality in sports, challenging the double standards women face. In 2023 she founded the Angel C. Reese Foundation, dedicated to empowering girls and women through sports, education, financial literacy, and more.
