Female Muslim athletes around the world can finally look forward to representation in professional sportswear after Nike announced it will launch the Nike Pro Hijab.
The product was first teased in the Swoosh’s viral video campaign, titled “What Will They Say About You?,” and is set to be released in spring 2018...
Though Nike has long been committed to diversity and inclusivity (it launched a plus-size range just last week,) this is the first time it has released an item specifically for Muslim female athletes.

How many female Muzzie athletes are there, in the world? I doubt that there are many.
Another reason to boycott Nike, buy more Under Armour gear. UA’s president supported Trump. I actually did go to Under Armour’s website and bought a hat and gym bag proudly displaying their tasteful logo.
XLNT photo, LOL
They forgot to provide a back pocket for her IED.
I like Under Armour. Nike stinks.
Ultimately, the market is no female Muslim athletes, the market will be young Muslim women wishing to make a style statement. That what the Nike logo is all about.
Love the meme. Dagumed great infidel humor!
I don’t see how you can compete with a bag over your head.
LOL! At least she can presumably see with one eye. The vision might be a bit obscured on the other side. ;)
That you are less than a man. That you shouldn't leave the house without a male companion. That you can be beaten by your husband. That you should have your genitals mutilated so you can't get pleasure from sex.
In some sick, twisted way, Nike is going to try to market this as empowering women.
Never liked Nike,and their stores are like a urban crap hole.
Thanks.
And, thankfully, I never purchase Nike products, since they hurt my feet. Had I done so, though, I’d NOT DO IT NOW.
FUNIKE.
Tiger Woods. That’s all that I need to know.
“What Will They Say About You?,”
Hopefully, “hide the knives,” when you come over.
