WNBA All-Star Angel Reese Scores Sweet Sponsorship Deal with Reese’s Candy Brand
Thanks to the unwavering support of her fans, WNBA All-Star Angel Reese has finally landed a highly-anticipated sponsorship deal with the beloved candy brand, Reese’s. The Chicago Sky’s star rookie now has her own exclusive merch apparel capsule, featuring the iconic orange, yellow, and brown color scheme of Reese’s, as well as a clever play on both her name and the brand’s on jerseys and shirts.
The idea for this partnership first caught attention when Reese herself took to social media, questioning why Reese’s had not reached out to her yet. She playfully called out the candy brand, saying, “Reese’s pieces, where y’all at?????” In response, Reese’s posted images of the new merch drop with the caption, “Where are we? Just following our favorite player.”
Reese’s fans were quick to champion the partnership, putting pressure on the brand by publicly asking and posting about the potential collaboration. And now, Angel has officially announced on her social media that a limited edition Angel Reese x Reese’s Pieces Logo collection is on its way. In an official press release, Angel expressed her gratitude to her fans, saying, “The fans really made this happen. This collection is for my Reese’s Pieces – who’ve been with me every step of the way. The design elements bring together things that I love – basketball, style, and of course, Reese’s!”
The first of three drops has already been released online, featuring 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, available in both white and cream. Fans can now purchase these items on TheAngelReese, and Angel has also revealed that two more drops are on the way. These will include the Angel Reese x Reese’s Basketball Jersey and the Angel Reese x Reese’s Cup Logo Collection.
