Whether it was via fashion, sport, or sustainability, there are so many individuals who are blazing new and exciting paths ahead. Check them out below.

Elena Delle Donne

This year, WNBA star Elena Delle Donne received her own signature sneaker with Nike: the Nike Air Deldon. As well as being a force on the court, the future Basketball Hall-of-Famer is an avid advocate of inclusivity, supporting the LGBTQIA+ and physically challenged communities at the core of all that she does. Her ethos can be seen reflected in the Nike Air Deldon, as the model was first and foremost designed as an inclusive sneaker. In terms of construction, the Air Be True colourway alongside a FlyEase upper, which gives the design a collapsible heel and an upper that opens wide for easy entry. Further celebrating the shoe’s message of inclusivity, Delle Donne also created a ‘Be True’ colourway.
