Angel Reese Teams up with Reese's For an Exclusive Merch Collection
“The fans really made this happen.”
Thanks to her fans, WNBA All-Star Angel Reese has inked a long-awaited fan-requested sponsorship deal with candy brand, Reese’s. The Chicago Sky star rookie now has an exclusive merch apparel capsule that takes on the candy brand’s signature orange, yellow and brown color scheme as well as a play on both her name and the brand’s on jerseys and shirts.
The potential idea of the partnership first drew attention when the athlete herself posted to X asking why Reese’s hasn’t reached out. She called out the candy brand, “Reese’s pieces where y’all at?????” Later, Reese’s responded earlier by posting images of the new merch drop with the caption, “Where are we? Just following our favorite player.” Many of Angel’s fans championed the partnership, putting pressure on the brand by publicly posting and asking Reese’s about the Angel Reese x Reese’s partnership.
It has now been announced by Angel herself on her social media that there is a limited edition Angel Reese x Reese’s Pieces Logo collection dropping. In an official press release, Angel said, “The fans really made this happen. This collection is for my Reese’s Pieces – who’ve been with me every step of the way and the design elements bring together things that I love -basketball, style, and of course, Reese’s!” The first of three have now been released online and features eight custom pieces with a mashup of the iconic Reese’s Pieces logo re-imagined just for Angel Reese. This drop includes a cropped tee, t-shirt, hoodie and hat offered in both white and cream. Available now on TheAngelReese, the Chicago Sky star also revealed that two more drops are coming and that the official partnership is just getting started. The other two drops will come at a later date and include Angel Reese x Reese’s Basketball Jersey and the Angel Reese x Reese’s Cup Logo Collection.
