Reebok and Nike unveiled new signature basketball sneaker iterations for WNBA stars Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark on June 18, 2026, ahead of their highly anticipated matchup between the Atlanta Dream and Indiana Fever.
Clark arrived at Gainbridge Fieldhouse Arena showcasing the blue "Caitlin 1," her debut signature shoe with Nike, which the company officially revealed on June 17, 2026.

Reese answered by carrying the Reebok Angel Reese 1 in the newly announced neon green "Poison Angel" colorway, which draws inspiration from her 2024 Poison Ivy Halloween costume.
The simultaneous shoe reveals highlighted the growing rivalry between the two sports icons on and off the court.
Shaquille O'Neal, President of Reebok's Basketball Division, previously advocated for Reese to debut her footwear against Clark during a 2025 Netflix documentary episode.
"The Angel Reese 1 'Poison Angel' colorway is bold by design," said Reese. "It represents confidence, edge and owning your space.
This colorway is for anyone who plays fearlessly, stands out from the crowd and isn't afraid to be seen."
Reese initially launched the first edition of her signature shoe last September, which features an exoskeleton upper, a TPU stability cup, and an Energy Return System with nitrogen-infused SuperFloat foam.
The new "Poison Angel" edition features grid green synthetic overlays and red highlights on breathable mesh.
"… it's my style, my story, and my stamp on the game," said Reese regarding her initial signature launch.
