“Jordan Brand has been in my life since my dad first introduced me to the sport of basketball and the GOAT that is Michael Jordan, and now it’s fully integrated into my fitness, lifestyle, and professional worlds,” says Sims. “Amplifying women, particularly women in sports, has been a huge passion and mission of mine. Together with Jordan Brand, I will continue to empower women to take up space—to not be afraid of our physical strength.”
Together, Jordan Brand and Sims aim to drive education around the importance of the mind-body connection and amplify the voices of women through transformative storytelling. Sims’ new role with College Game Day provides a unique opportunity to ignite cultural conversations beyond the field of play.

Jordan Brand believes there is an opportunity to lead with purpose and amplify the voices of women, specifically creatives and fashion designers, through partnerships with athletes like Sims.
