Sha'Carri Richardson's top Nike campaigns
Sha'Carri Richardson turned professional in 2019 when she signed up with Nike for an initial contract of four years. She signed an extension contract for five more years in 2023, worth $20 million approximately.
Since 2019, the 24-year-old American sprinter has appeared in several popular Nike campaigns, including those for the Paris Olympics 2024. When she turned up to cheer her teammates from the US basketball finals at the Paris Olympics, Richardson was seen in an experimental top that was made from three different pairs of Nike Dunks.
That wasn't all. Richardson was felicitated with a special tribute from Nike for her achievements at the quadrennial event in Paris. In one of her Instagram stories, the American sprinter was seen holding a customized suitcase embossed with the Nike emblem on it.
Richardson once talked about inspiring people through her fashion choices. In an interview with NBC, she mentioned,
"I really just wanted people to know that you can be yourself. That means you wanna be sexy, you wanna be cute, you wanna express yourself in ways that nobody has before? Don’t let that stop you.”
Sha'Carri Richardson had a roller coaster campaign in 2024. While she made a name for herself at the Paris Olympics, Richardson finished her athletic season on a slightly disappointing note as she barely managed to avoid a last place finish at the Wanda Diamond League Finals 2024 which were held at Brussels in Belgium.
