On Monday night, Angel Reese put up a historic night to give the Atlanta Dream their first win in the 2026 WNBA Finals. Now, Reese is preparing for another historic moment ahead of Game 3.
Reese, who is a Reebok athlete, collaborated with REESE'S the candy to produce a one-of-a-kind personal shoe. The sneakers' design features elements that perfectly fit both Reese and REESE'S, making it a special release that only the Dream star could help produce.
Fittingly, the shoe will release on Wednesday, ahead of Game 3 of the WNBA Finals and 10 days before Halloween will come in the United States. Besides the obvious colors that the design team prioritized, there are also a few hidden details that only show how great of a pairing these two sides are.
Hidden details in Angel Reese's new sneakers
Angel Reese's new sneakers come at the perfect time, fresh off her dominant performance in Game 2 of the WNBA Finals and just a few weeks before Halloween. The shoes are a collaboration with REESE'S PIECES, which itself has a new product coming out soon.
Unsurprisingly, Reese's new shoes are brown, yellow, and orange to further represent the REESE'S candy brand.

However, a closer look shows a few hidden details that only added to the impressive design.
First, the tongue of the shoe features an "A" for Angel in the design of the REESE'S "R," but the word "Reese's" is written on the inside of the sole of the shoe. Additionally, the side of the shoe has a splatter of brown and orange that looks like the "REESE'S PIECES" candy, both from afar and up close.
Angel Reese is launching the "Reese's" Reebok Angel 1s tomorrow, an official collab with @Reeses, with a theme inspired by the iconic candy. "We designed this colorway especially for my fans, for the Reese’s Pieces!" says @Reese10Angel https://t.co/n8yfzsrRXF
