The Phoenix Mercury’s Brittney Griner signed an endorsement deal with Nike and is their first openly gay athlete signing . As part of that deal, Brittney isn’t interested in obtaining the clothing they have for women. The WNBA’s number one pick will instead create her own androgynous lane rocking menswear.
ESPN’s Kate Fagan revealed that Griner’s contract will allow her to wear clothes branded for men.
Considering Griner’s height and slight build, it makes sense. Plus, I occasionally rock stuff meant for guys too. I think that’s one of those female privilege things.
