Saysh
Saysh is a community-centered lifestyle brand that aims to celebrate female creativity and athleticism through athletic footwear created by women.
Unique Advantage
From the design, all the way to the manufacturing, Saysh sneakers have been designed for women by women. Where most sneakers are designed for a man's foot then shrunken to create women's sizes, Saysh takes an alternative approach to this outdated system. Saysh aims to celebrate female creativity and athleticism one pair of sneakers at a time.
Allyson Felix
About the Founder
As a seven-time Olympic gold medalist and 14-time world champion, Allyson Felix is considered one of the most decorated Olympic athletes of all time. Despite her impressive record, in 2017, Allyson was offered a 70% pay cut in her new contract with Nike because she was pregnant. Failing to explicitly support the maternity protections Allyson had requested in the contract, she ultimately left Nike and signed with Athleta, a women-focused apparel company. In 2020, Allyson Felix founded Saysh, an alternative to male-oriented sneaker companies.
