This is a book about Nike sportswear and what it means to women. It's the first to chart a visual history of women’s sportswear, and the key role that Nike has played in it over the last 50 years. It's about the garments women wear, and why they wear them, athletes, the spaces we perform in, and the way we use clothing to do it. Each chapter features interviews with Nike athletes, trainers, and other collaborators, along with insightful texts from cultural commentators. Across more than 350 pages and 575 images, this unprecedented volume not only maps the development of women’s sports apparel but proves its potential, in whatever context, to make athletes who identify as women feel at their most powerful. Hardcover, 352 pages.
