Saysh

Social Media: Instagram | Facebook | YouTube
“Finding racing shoes shouldn’t have been a struggle for Olympic champion Allyson Felix. She had already won 32 career medals and helped usher in game changing pay guarantees and pregnancy protections. But inequality knows no bounds, and she still saw disparities in a footwear industry that didn’t bother to consider bodies that weren’t male. So she teamed up with her brother, Wes, and together they built Saysh, a collection of stylish, functional sneakers designed for everyday performance. Inequality might know no bounds, but neither do we.”
