Nike Women's Running Shoes in Extended Sizes

Nike needs to expand their women's running shoe line to include extended sizes (14+). Many athletes with larger feet are currently unable to find properly fitting running shoes, leading them to choose competitor brands. This campaign advocates for Nike to invest in developing and manufacturing women's running shoes in sizes 14, 15, and 16.
