Sneaker News Sha’Carri Richardson was not leaving Paris without an Olympic Gold Medal. In her first-ever appearance in the global Games, women’s Team USA took home the top-prize is the 4×100 relay, with Richardson playing pivotal role as the anchor. She closed it out for the United States wearing a custom green colorway of the Nike Maxfly 2 spike.
Nike introduced its massive “Electric Pack” collection of footwear, presenting its most modern performance and lifestyle icons in a statement colorway of black/orange and the iconic “Safari” print concepted decades ago. With Sha’Carri’s every step being monitored in Paris, it made pure sense for Nike to outfit one of its most dynamic athletes with something a bit extra.
An additional personal touch is the inclusion of some key quotes made by Sha’Carri after her gold medal win at the 2023 U.S. Championships. Above the footbed on the left shoe reads “I’m Not Back,” while the right reads “I’m Better”.
Earlier this week, Sha’Carri Richardson took home the Silver medal in the hotly contested 100m sprint. The Gold went to Saint Lucia’s Julien Alfred.
