Angel Reese has released her first footwear and apparel collection with Reebok since inking a deal with the fitness giant last year.
The clothing line, inspired by her ‘powerful energy and versatile style,’ features three sneaker styles: the Premier Road VI, BB 4000 II, and Classic Leather.
Of course, the WNBA star put her own unique stamp on the shoes, etching her matra – ‘when they sleep on you … tuck them in’ – on the insoles.
The blue and silver hued collection also features a graphic tee, a track jacket and a bodysuit.
‘I wanted to create a collection that allowed women and girls everywhere to embrace their femininity and power in whatever they’re doing,’ Reese said in a press release, noting she wants customers to feel ‘stylish and fierce.’

She also gave a shoutout her her ‘Uncle Shaq’ aka Shaquille O’Neal, whose first move after he was named the brand’s president of basketball was signing Reese.
‘[Reebok] serves as a true creative partner, and we’re really able to collaborate on pieces designed to elicit confidence and expression,’ Reese told Highsnobiety on Thursday.
‘Being able to work with legends like Uncle Shaq and Allen Iverson, and to represent women in basketball is also an incredible honor.’
She went on, ‘I worked hand-in-hand with the brand to ensure each and every piece is designed to elicit confidence and expression.’
The Chicago Sky rookie, who was still playing for LSU when she inked the deal with Reebok, has been credited with helping boost the WNBA’s ratings, merchandise sales and attendance at games.
Fanatics – the official retailer of the league – has seen a 500% surge in business during the first half of the season when compared to the first half of 2023, which many have credited to Reese and her rookie rival, Caitlin Clark.

The WNBA’s surge in popularity is paying off in more ways than one, with the league inking a new media rights package worth about $2.2 billion over 11 years last month, The Athletic reported.
It nets out to approximately $200 million annually, roughly four times the WNBA’s current media deals with Disney, Ion, CBS and Amazon, which are valued at $50 million annually.
Several records have already been smashed throughout this WNBA season alone, with the league announcing last month that more than 400,000 fans attended games in May – the most in 26 years.
Additionally, the league’s viewership has increased greatly since Clark and Reese’s arrival.
Across ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, and CBS, WNBA games are averaging 1.32 million viewers – which is nearly triple last season’s standard of 462,200 viewers.
