The debut “Lyme” colorway (Ocotber 6, 2022) is inspired by her battle with Lyme disease: the lime-green accents represent the drive to continue to fight, even when you feel like you’ve got nothing left.

Elena tweeted, “Inspired by my battle with Lyme disease, this shoe represents the fight I bring both on and off the court. Through sharing my story, I hope to show other athletes what’s possible.”

The shoes also feature a “EDD” circle logo along the strap closures and heel, as well as another EDD text along a forefoot nylon tab to round out the signature detailing. You can get yours on Nike or Dick’s Sporting Goods for $120.
