LSU v UCLAAngel Reese debuts “Chi Barbie” customs in massive win over Liberty

The Chicago Sky’s star rookie, Angel Reese, caught everyone’s attention during the game against the New York Liberty on Thursday night at Barclays Center. Reese debuted her custom-made “Chi Barbie” signature shoes, which she showed off a few days earlier on her Instagram story.

Wearing the Reebok customs, Reese delivered an impressive performance, scoring 13 points, collecting nine rebounds and dishing out one assist in the Sky’s 90-81 win.

Find a picture of the shoes in the tweet below:


The unofficial Angel Reese customs feature the Chicago Sky color scheme, with sky blue, yellow and lemon green hues covering the entire body except for the white sole. The signature phrases “Chi Barbie” and “#5” are painted on the swoosh of the left and right shoe respectively, in the official Barbie font. The right shoe’s vamp features the letter “A” with an angel ring, while the left shoe says “Reese” in the same position.

The sneakers were designed by Marvin Baroota, a designer and artist with 12.8K followers on Instagram at the time of writing. He posted the concept shoes on his IG account two days ago, mentioning Reese and Reebok. The Sky rookie instantly fell in love with the customs and endorsed them on her Instagram account.

Reebok itself was impressed by the creativity, dropping a fire emoji in the comments section of the post.
