The new collection features footwear and apparel. The footwear model for the collection is 9060 and has been hand-picked by McLaughlin-Levrone. The collection features a French terry hoodie, high-rise leggings, a classic varsity jacket and jogging trousers.
The major sports apparel brand collaborated with the three-time world champion to launching the new FuleCell Rebel v4 running shoe and a matching track spike, the FuelCell SuperComp MDX v3. The new unisex signature collection will be launched for the fans on March 7, 2024.

She announced her withdrawal to her fans on social media, conveying her decision to take a rest and come back stronger in the Olympic year. The American athlete also missed the ongoing World Indoor Athletics Championships in Glasgow.
