Angel Reese releases ‘mebounds' merchandise with proceeds going toward cyber-bullying prevention
After filing to trademark the term 'mebounds,' Angel Reese has released a merchandise collection featuring the word used to mock her game on the court through her personal website, with a portion of proceeds going to 'support cyber bully prevention through The Angel C. Reese Foundation.' Reese has also followed up the 'mebounds' trademark filing with one for the term 'Reesebounds.'
The 'mebounds' collection includes a variety of T-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, and slides ranging from $28-$75 in both youth and adult sizes. One shirt design is the text of the trademark filing.

'Whoever came up with the 'mebounds' thing, y'all ate that up because 'mebounds,' rebounds, 'crebounds' … anything that comes off that board, it's mine,' Reese said in a TikTok video around the time of the trademark filing. 'And a brand? That's six figures right there.'
'Mebounds' began as a mocking reference to Reese's penchant for getting the rebounds from her own misses. Reese is averaging 12.3 rebounds and 11.7 points per game on 39.1 percent shooting through 15 games for the Chicago Sky so far this season.
The 'mebounds' trademark application was filed on June 14 and is awaiting examination. On June 20, Reese filed an application to trademark 'Reesebounds,' which is also still pending examination. Both trademarks are intended for use on T-shirts, sweatshirts, and hats.
