What's happening?
Nike is introducing new gymnastics leotards, created for the first time in collaboration with elite athletes Jordan Chiles and Skye Blakely.

How were the athletes involved?
Input from Jordan and Skye shaped every aspect of their collections, from silhouettes and graphics to fit, materials and finishing details, ensuring each piece reflects their individual style while meeting the demands of training and competition.

Why do these collections matter?
As the sport continues to grow, the collections reflect Nike's commitment to inspiring the next generation of gymnasts, combining athlete insight with technical innovation to bring elite-level design to gymnasts at every stage of their journey.

When are the collections available?
Jordan and Skye's leotard collections will be available beginning July 15 at nike.com and gkelite.com.

Nike is expanding its commitment to the future of gymnastics with the introduction of new leotard collections from elite gymnasts, two-time Olympian Jordan Chiles and two-time World Team Champion Skye Blakely.

Developed alongside partner GK Elite, the collections translate athlete-inspired design into training- and competition-ready apparel while making signature styles more accessible to young gymnasts.

Designed for athletes who train, compete and express themselves through movement, the collections reflect a new chapter for gymnastics - one where performance, storytelling and individuality are equally celebrated.

Both Jordan and Skye played an active role in shaping their leotards from conception to completion.

Jordan drew inspiration from fashion, entertainment and bold visual storytelling, emphasizing a prominent Swoosh and dynamic design details, including a one-legged silhouette inspired by Florence Griffith Joyner's iconic track style. Her collection reflects the confidence, strength and competitive mindset she brings to the sport every day.

Skye brought original sketches and a softer creative lens to her collection, pairing feminine color palettes with striking visual execution. The result is a design that balances elegance with performance while reflecting her personal style on and off the competition floor.

Throughout development, both athletes worked alongside Nike and GK Elite to provide feedback on fit, materials, trims and functionality - refining every detail to ensure the leotards perform at the highest level while preserving each athlete's unique creative vision.

Each silhouette tells a distinct story while celebrating the qualities that define today's gymnasts: confidence, precision, power and individuality.

Athlete signatures appear on every leotard, creating a personal connection between the designs and the athletes who inspired them. Thoughtfully placed graphics, color blocking and performance materials combine to create collections that feel equally at home during competition, training and everyday wear.

The collections also reflect a broader evolution within gymnastics, where athletes increasingly influence culture through personal style, storytelling and self-expression alongside their athletic achievements.

By combining technical performance with athlete-led design, the collections empower young gymnasts to see themselves reflected in what they wear - and to train with confidence inspired by two of the sport's most recognizable athletes.

The Jordan Chiles and Skye Blakely leotard collections will be available in kids' XS through adult XL sizing beginning July 15 at nike.com and gkelite.com.
