Reebok Angel Reese 1 ‘Barbie’ Drops August 3rd With a Signature Doll

The Reebok Angel Reese 1 ‘Barbie’ is a pink-drenched makeover of Angel Reese’s debut signature basketball shoe, created as part of a Barbie collaboration with Mattel and Reebok. It arrives August 3rd at 10 a.m. ET on Reebok.com, Foot Locker, and DICK’s Sporting Goods, and it lands alongside a matching Angel Reese Barbie Signature doll dressed in the same shoes. Reese unveiled both at TOGETHXR House in Chicago during WNBA All-Star Weekend.

This tie-up brings together three names carrying real cultural weight right now. Mattel gets a Barbie Signature doll modeled on a WNBA star, Reebok gets its boldest Angel Reese 1 colorway yet, and Reese adds another marquee deal to a résumé that already includes an American Vogue cover and an ownership stake in the women’s sports brand TOGETHXR. It also follows an earlier Barbie x Reebok collection, though this drop pushes the partnership onto a performance basketball silhouette for the first time. Specifically, the doll and the shoe debut together inside the TOGETHXR House ‘Dream Closet,’ a fan experience open to the public July 24 and 25.

A Barbie-Pink Makeover for the Angel Reese 1

So what actually changed? Plenty. The build keeps the Angel Reese 1’s sculpted, wing-like midfoot cage but reskins it in a cream-and-white base, with mint-tinted panels peeking through the cutouts. Hot-pink patent leather then wraps the heel and the collar, while soft yellow accents sit under the laces and along the midsole. On top of that, magenta laces and a magenta mesh tongue anchor the Barbie theme up front.

Meanwhile, the co-branding is where this collaboration shows off. A ‘Barbie’ script sits high on the tongue, Reese’s ‘AR’ logo appears just below it, and the heel carries the instantly recognizable Barbie head silhouette in soft pink. Underfoot, the translucent outsole splits into hot-pink and yellow traction zones, and ‘Energy Return System’ runs across the heel. Plus, the Angel Reese 1 ‘Barbie’ comes in both adult and kids’ sizing, with co-branded touches on the tongue and the sockliner.

When Is the Angel Reese 1 ‘Barbie’ Release Date?

The Reebok Angel Reese 1 ‘Barbie’ release date is Sunday, August 3, at 10 a.m. ET. You can buy the pair at Reebok.com, Foot Locker, and DICK’s Sporting Goods.

For now, Reebok has not confirmed a price for this specific colorway. That said, every previous Angel Reese 1 colorway has retailed for $120, so expect the ‘Barbie’ pair to land in that range. The matching doll follows its own schedule, the Angel Reese Barbie Signature doll is available starting today, in stores exclusively at Target and online at Target, Walmart, Amazon, and Mattel Shop.

Angel Reese Gets Her Own Barbie Signature Doll

The shoe is only half the story. The Angel Reese Barbie doll is styled in a pink ‘Angel’ No. 5 basketball jersey and the matching Angel Reese 1 ‘Barbie’ sneakers, the exact look Reese wears across the campaign. Reese called the doll ‘a true dream come true,’ framing it as a message to girls that ‘there are no limits to what they can achieve.’

There is a cultural throughline here, too. Reese founded the Angel C. Reese Foundation in 2023 to widen access to sports, education, and financial literacy for girls, and this collaboration leans into that same message about women’s basketball driving the culture. On top of the doll and shoe, she worked with Barbie on a limited apparel capsule, a custom jersey plus tees and headwear, sold at the Dream Closet and on TheAngelReese.com. Then the celebration continues August 3rd, when the Atlanta Dream host a Barbie Game Day against the Las Vegas Aces in Atlanta.
