Taking to her Instagram stories, Kris supported her daughter’s deal by sharing articles that announced the NikeSKIMS collaboration.

Kim launched SKIMS in 2019. The shapewear brand, valued at over $4 billion, has previously collaborated with the Italian fashion house Fendi and outdoor performance clothing brand The North Face.

It is also the official underwear partner of the Women’s National Basketball League (WNBA).

“We will invite even more athletes into sport and movement with product that makes them feel strong and sexy.

SKIMS practices inclusive sizing. Kim said the collaboration will feature athletic clothing “designed to sculpt and perform for every body.”

NikeSKIMS will include training apparel, footwear, and accessories for women.

The launch is part of the sportswear giant’s effort to appeal to female customers. Their “So Win” Super Bowl ad—the first in nearly three decades—was also targeted at women, highlighting the rise of female athletes and featuring basketball star Caitlin Clark and sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson.

“The women’s business has faster growth and it has more potential growth in the future. Nike missed out on that opportunity that Lululemon exploited over the last 10-15 years,” Morningstar analystDavid Swartz said.

“The Skims partnership is an effort to grow a little bit faster in that area.”
