'This is something I had always dreamed of when I came into the sport.' — allysonfelix
is one of the greatest athletes of all time and one of the greatest sprinters of all time. She's broken numerous records, she's broken barriers in sports, and she's transforming the future of sports for the next generation of athletes.
As the world navigates two pandemics — COVID-19 and racial injustice in the United States — Felix isn't afraid to speak out. She's speaking out for her life, for the lives of countless Black and brown people, for future generations, and to elicit change in the world her daughter will grow up in. She's also breaking barriers off the track, like being one of a handful of women to have her own athletic collection.
While Felix was looking for a new apparel sponsor, she said one thing that sold her on the partnership with Athleta was that the brand's values were aligned with her personal values and mission: to empower women and girls. Felix didn't want to just create another pair of leggings and a new sports bra, she wanted the Athleta x Allyson Felix collection to make those who wear it feel great.
