As one of the most popular fashion events in the world, the Met Gala, which is about to commence on May 4, Reebok took us down memory lane with a new sneaker colourway for the Angel Reese signature lineup.

Reebok announced the release of Angel Reese 1 ‘Gala Green’, inspired by Reese’s iconic 2024 look at the Met Gala.

The latest Atlanta Dream signing took to social media on April 30 to announce the release of the shoe with the caption, “In honor of Met Gala Week!

Angel Reese 1: ‘Gala Green,’” she wrote on X.

The Met Gala is held each year on the first Monday in May at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Reese made her debut at the event two years ago, which instantly became one of her most iconic off-court moments.

On her birthday, 22-year-old Reese hit the red carpet in a mint green 16Arlington gown – sequin bodice, ostrich feather detailing styled by Vogue’s Naomi Elizée.

That backstory lends the pair their heft. “Pulls those mint tones into performance form, with layered green shades across the upper and side cages that create dimension without losing the clean lines of the silhouette,” said House of Heat.

Meanwhile, the visible ERS cushioning window gives a subtle nod to hardwood function and gives the model its bounce, according to Sneaker News.

The retail price is set at $130, while the release date of the Gala Green will be somewhere between Spring and Summer.

The Angel Reese 1 line has already proved a draw among consumers, with other releases also a story of success for Reebok.

Angel Reese’s Signature Shoe Line Always Sells Like Hot Cakes

Reese first signed an NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) deal with Reebok back in 2023 when she was still at LSU. She became the face of the brand’s renewed era, bringing attitude to the label and capitalizing on the increased cachet of the women’s game in the landscape.

Ever since its launch, Reese’s line has proved that it can be a huge asset for Reebok. The very first colourways, like the “Tiago King Reese”, to the latest ones like “Rose Dust” have sold out within hours of their release.

Apart from the Gala Green, Reese has also applied a personal touch to other colourways like ‘Unapologetically Angel’, naming it after her podcast.
