Why use the letter R as the basis for the logo? The real branding challenge here is that the name of the product says nothing about shoes, fashion, or status. The word reel could refer to film, fishing, or the unsteady gait of a drunk.
Why not work on a logo that gives the consumer a clue to what the product is?

Reeler is graceful man. He is strong true faith and very ambitious person about his job. Reeler do different different jobs to take care of his family. He believes in working by his own earning it. Doing different jobs and work for his family has increased his efficiency and experience. He pursues his objectives actively and energetically. reeler has a very friendly attitude with others..
Chuchuu, thanks for the additional information. It sounds like you're a student. I'm willing to offer suggestions (if I have any) if you'll show us the concepts you've developed, but I don't want to do your project for you. Please show us your best concepts. Thanks.
@ chuchuu
Are you begging people to design a logo for you? Lame…
Obviously you can't do it, so just pay a designer for this, here or somewhere else – end of story.
If your brand identity is based on a character named Reeler, your client will need to tell the story of Reeler first (with a video, a song, a game, print advertisements, etc.), and then use the logo to reinforce the story.
(My apologies if Reeler is already a well-known character or a real person. I live in the US, and I'm no longer a young man, so there are some elements of popular culture of which I am ignorant.)
sir mojo : thats the point i need to tell story of my brand character through logo .. and logo should be too much minimilistic that are the requirements
@chuchu: “i had many ideas for logo and all had rejected i made 150 sketches of logo. :(”
Are you doing these on paper, or on a computer?
When I started studying design, we were asked to produce 100 sketches in an afternoon. Spend 1-2 mins on an idea, then stop, do a 180˚, and move onto a totally different idea. Use big 2' × 3' pad of newsprint. It will help you make free-associations between different ideas.
If you are capable of doing 150, I’m confidant you can do another 150. Keep trying. You learn to do by doing.
@cyrusselster: Are actually trying to help a student by literally doing their homework for them, or promote your own website? 5star’s is obviously a joke, but your’s could easily be presented as a final. Slippery slope we’re on. And don’t feel singled out, I’ve been ranting about this for a while. See:

This option is seeing a lot of usage…

Rather than asking us to design it for you, please post your concepts and we can use them as a starting point for discussion.

so logo should be base on this personality

the logo should not be generic

Wow: I never knew that shoes could be expressive of so many positive personality traits. What do my Converse One-Star hightops say about me, I wonder…

Maybe he's just asking for ideas - which is OK (as long as he doesn't take the credit).

Here are some logos that use a character as the embodiment of their brand.

typography base logo....
which typography would go with my brand personality?

Based on the “self-made man” aspect?

Of course, you could reinforced the “reel” aspect by using this face in all caps, and flopping the second /E/…

Sounds like Reeler has got a lot of soul. He don't play no tricks to get his kicks.
