Jackie Young, Rickea Jackson and Kiki Iriafen are all Skechers ambassadors.
And now, the WNBA is also partnering with the sneaker brand, announcing Skechers as an official partner of the league just ahead of this milestone 30th season.
Here’s what Young, Jackson and Iriafen said about their experiences with Skechers, as well as what the new partnership means for the WNBA.
For me, it’s all about staying comfortable and locked in, and Skechers gave me that all the way through our championship run last
season. This season is going to be special, and it feels like the perfect time for Skechers to make it official. I can’t wait to see more players in the S on the court soon.
Jackie Young, Las Vegas Aces
The Skechers team constantly checks in with me for feedback and ideas, so they’ve been a great partner for me as a player and I know they’ll be a fantastic partner for the league. And of course I love the shoes—they look and feel great on the court. It is only a matter of time until more players will start to catch on.
Rickea Jackson, Chicago Sky
When Skechers signed me ahead of the draft last year, I knew this was a brand that believed not only in me, but in our sport overall. From design to promotion, they truly prioritize the needs of female athletes and now that they’re partnered with the W, the possibilities are limitless.
Kiki Iriafen, Washington Mystics
