Now, hopefully she can "spill the beans" about Nike.
wtf I thought she joined New Balance
New Balance was one of the "boring pitch" companies she mentions.

Ha ha! Consider yourself trolled.
"Oiselle has always been about building a community of women (and some bro birds) centered on an athletic lifestyle"

Translation: Oiselle is for women and xfit gays.
We are merging two threads into one so the next few posts are what were posted in another thread on the same subject.
what shoes is she gonna rock?
Apparently Saucony, judging by the photos posted on her blog today.
"One of the most accomplished female distant runners of all time."
What?
Can somebody confirm she's with Saucony?
everyone loves oiselle so much...I'm sure it's a good company, but where is the money coming from? It sounds like a vanity operation that will collapse if they have a bad season or two of sales.
I hope I'm wrong, but I have a bad feeling about this.
I think representing Oiselle means you'd be running without a formal shoe contract. Perhaps some companies might supply her with some free shoes with the hopes that she'd be photographed wearing them?

Good question. Why is a gear company and shoe company exclusive? Or is it just that most shoe companies also sell gear? It seems to me that shoe companies could still sign her to a smaller deal that is just limited to shoes.
I guess she is done. She had a very good career.
The Oiselle apparel items I have seen are unflattering and expensive. They seem to be recruiting a lot of female sub elites but even those women don't look good in their race kits.
How long til Athleta gets into the elite game? Kara would have been perfect for them.
So ugly. The race kit is nasty. Where are all the fans who claim her Nike offer was the same? LOL!

Didn't make print: "I turned down a seven figure offer to go to Oiselle"--Kara Goucher, who said she's still seeking a shoe-only deal.
7 figures? Was she Making a Million a year with Nike????
