WNBA rookies Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark will collide once more on Sunday when the Indiana Fever host the Chicago Sky. Ahead of the game, which will see the two longtime rivals battle it out once more, Reese has shown off an all-new pair of Reebok Solutions customized for the Sky-Fever game.
The shoes, which were hand-painted by sneaker artist Marvin Baroota, feature a Joker theme from the DC Comics Batman series. Across the top of the toe box, the Joker’s infamous smile can be seen on the right shoe, while the left shoe features the villain’s evil laugh.
The shoes also notably feature a Joker-green Reebok logo on the side, further highlighting the overall theme of the shoes. The custom colorway isn’t the first collaboration between Reebok and Baroota, with the artist also customizing Angel Reese’s Barbie-inspired Reebok Solutions earlier in the season.
While the shoes are incredibly unique, and boast a truly one-of-one design, there’s no coincidence that Reese is debuting the villain-themed sneakers for Sunday’s game. Amid her ongoing competitive rivalry with Caitlin Clark, which stems back to the pair’s NCAA days, Reese recently explained that she’s fine playing the villain.
Ahead of the upcoming Sky-Fever game on Sunday, Angel Reese appears to be making it clear that she’s fully leaning into the villain role on-court.
