WNBA's Angel Reese Reveals Release Date for 1st Reebok Signature Shoe in New Photo

Reebok announced Thursday that Chicago Sky star Angel Reese's first signature shoe is set to be released next month.

In a post on X that was later co-signed by Reese, Reebok revealed that the Angel Reese 1: Diamond Dust will be available starting on Sept. 18:

Sole Retriever noted that the shoe will be available in three different colorways—iridescent blue, pink and white/black—when it drops on Sept. 18:

The AR1: Diamond Dust sneakers were first shown off last month as part of an ad campaign featuring Reese:

Per Jael Rucker of The Sporting News, Reebok explained the inspiration behind the shoe and its design in an official statement, saying:

"A true design collaboration between Reese and Reebok, the Angel Reese 1 is a signature experience around who she is and how she moves, blending performance, cultural edge, and personal narrative. Reese debuts the Angel Reese 1 in the 'Diamond Dust' colorway, featuring vivid iridescent color hues that champion both the grit and glam Reese brings to the game. Built to shine both on the court and evolve for the streets, like Reese, who embodies both the strength and style of the modern athlete."

Reese, 23, is in the midst of her second WNBA season on the heels of a successful collegiate career that saw her lead LSU to a national title in 2023, winning NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player honors in the process.

As a rookie, Reese was named an All-Star and led the WNBA in rebounding, and she has been an even better and more complete player this season.

While her rebounding is down slightly from 13.1 per game to 12.6 per game, Reese is averaging more points (14.2), assists (3.7) and steals (1.5) per contest this season, and she has gone from shooting 39.1 percent from the field last season to 44.4 percent this season.

It hasn't led to much team success for the Sky, who are 12th out of 13 teams in the WNBA with an 8-24 record, but Reese is clearly a star on the rise both on and off the court, and her new signature shoe is proof positive of that.
