Now a two-time All-Star, she’s also just been announced as the NBA 2K26 WNBA Edition cover athlete. This honor is joined by another major headline today: the unveiling of her first signature shoe with Reebok, introducing the Reebok Angel Reese 1.While Reese having a shoe comes as no surprise, considering the two confirmed this last year, it was initially slated for a 2026 launch (and may still be), making a mid-2025 unveiling an unexpected one. Our limited first look at the pair sees it don an iridescent “Diamond Dust” that covers its sculpted structure. Her signature logo is also present atop the tongue.At the time of writing, neither Angel Reese nor Reebok Basketball have confirmed when the Angel Reese 1 will be making its retail debut. The two previously announced that the sneaker would be dropping in 2026, however, it is possible that this has changed since. Stay tuned for updates, including a complete look at this lead “Diamond Dust” colorway, as we expect the sneaker to arrive on shelves via Reebok and select retailers soon. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Reebok (@reebok)
