1 hour ago 2

Angel Reese has found the perfect way to bring her fanbase's nickname to life. 

The 24-year-old WNBA star has teamed up with Reese's Pieces and Reebok to develop a candy-inspired version of her signature Angel Reese 1 sneaker. 

The new Reebok Angel Reese 1 ‘REESE’S’ goes all-in on the candy brand's signature look by splashing shades of orange, yellow, and brown across the sweet design. 

"My fans call themselves the Reese's Pieces, so this partnership has always felt really personal to me," Reese told "People." "Getting to bring that connection to life with Reese’s and Reebok just made perfect sense. Now, to take it even further with REESE’S PIECES with Chocolate Cookie and my new Reebok Angel Reese 1 ‘REESE’S’ colorway feels like such a full-circle moment.”

Angel Reese puts her own spin on Reese's Pieces 

Reese said she worked closely with Reebok's design team to make sure the latest version of her signature kicks felt authentic. 

For her latest release, the Atlanta Dream star kept the traditional Reese's Pieces candy theme intact, while making sure the shoes still felt like something she would wear. 

Fans were immediately into the candy-inspired look. 

"NEED THESE," one fan commented. 

"A collab so good it writes itself 🤎🧡🤎🧡," another person said. 

"The kicks are actually fire 🔥🔥🔥," someone else added. 

Reese is pretty pleased with how they turned out, too. 

"I love how much of me is in the whole design,” Reese said. “The Angel Reese 1 is reimagined in the iconic Reese’s orange, yellow and brown in a way that’s both bold and playful," the WNBA star said. "I also love that the shoe connects back to my fans, the Reese’s Pieces — that makes it even more special."

Reese first began her partnership with Reese's and Reebok in 2024. 

The Angel Reese 1 ‘REESE’S’ will release in adult and kids' sizes on October 20 for $160.
