Whether imaginable or unimaginable, Angel Reese has reached great heights in just two years in the WNBA.
The Chicago Sky superstar has emerged as a cultural and commercial icon in the sneaker scene. And she is taking all the long strides with her recent Reebok signature shoe deal.
Though Reese did face some fan backlash over her sneakers, it still remains a curious case as to how much the LSU alum makes from those shoes.
How Much Angel Reese Makes From Reebok Signature Shoe Deal?
The Reebok Angel Reese 1, released on September 18, made her the fastest player in two decades to earn a signature sneaker, selling out within hours across all 24 sizes and three colorways. The hype is real, as Reese had to acknowledge that her shoes were selling out fast.

While exact earnings remain undisclosed, her multi-year extension with Reebok, announced alongside plans for a 2026 shoe, was undoubtedly lucrative.
The lack of public financial details leaves room for speculation, but her deal’s impact is undeniable.

However, her initial 2023 NIL signing with Reebok, followed by a multiyear extension in 2024 that included a signature shoe clause, hints at a phased investment.

The early release of the Reebok Angel Reese 1 in September, which moved up from a planned 2026 launch due to overwhelming fan demand, has fans appreciating Reebok’s confidence in Reese’s marketability.
Although industry estimates for WNBA signature deals vary widely. A’ja Wilson’s Nike deal, for instance, exceeds $1 million annually, according to some rumors. However, Caitlin Clark’s Nike contract is speculated to be in the multi-million range over several years.
As the 15th WNBA player with a signature shoe and the second fastest to achieve it since Sheryl Swoopes in 1995, Reese’s deal likely falls in a comparable tier, potentially starting at $500,000 to $1 million per year.
Additionally, according to some reports, the AR1’s sell-out success will also bring some bonuses on top of everything. Reebok’s head of basketball, Jide Osifeso, emphasized a “ground-up build” of her silhouette, hinting at a long-term investment that could escalate with her performance and popularity.
