Angel Reese partners with Reese's for limited-edition collection
By Trey Weston
With the WNBA surging in popularity, it is hard not to have heard of the name Angel Reese. The once-NCAA champion at LSU has moved to the professional side and has been a double-double machine for the Chicago Sky. However, one thing that is hard to miss is that her name is just one letter from matching an iconic candy brand, leading the two to collaborate.
After her fans, who call themselves "Reese's Pieces," pushed for the two to team up, it finally came to be. Angel Reese and Reese's have created a limited-time collection that allows you to up your fashion game. The release will ultimately have three drops, with the first available now by visiting www.theangelreese.com.
"The fans really made this happen," said Angel Reese via a press release provided to Guilty Eats. "This 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!"
As mentioned above, there will three drops, each featuring different items. The first features the Reese's Pieces logo on a cropped tee, t-shirt, hoodie, and hat. Next is a custom jersey that gives you a chance to wear Reese and Reese's on your back. And finally, the last one is a collection that mixes the style of Angel Reese with the iconic Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.
Ultimately, I feel like this sponsorship that Reese is receiving from Reese's shows how much women's basketball has grown. The WNBA has seen a significant rise in viewership, largely due to stars like A'ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart mixed with rookie sensations like Reese and Caitlin Clark.
That said, the time is now to buy some Angel Reese x Reese's drip in preparation for the next Chicago Sky game.
