Insiders also knew that she didn't even have a proper adidas contract before her miraculous WR. Same for Kandie in the Half.
Just group blanket contracts from the exploiting agent / manager / human traffickers.
Check out her squeeky clean agent Senor Pineda in Ethiopia right now.
He was shopping her around brands this indoor season after that WR.
She wore the swooshy shoes to force adidas into paying a proper deal. They are hell bent on having top female talent for Tokyo and beyond. Their new brand mantra (like all brands) is Future Is Female.
Imagine Cheptugui, Kipchoge or other Nike WR holders wearing adidas shoes.
Or new indoor WR Mr Grant Holloway racing in Nike spikes next weekend...
Clearly would never happen unless there is contract disputes.... or the spikes are years behind like the shoddy adidas spikes are!
