DIALED: SPONSOR LINDSEY BUTLER

800M National Champion. 4x ACC Champion. 8x NCAA All-American. 3x Olympic Trials Qualifier. Unsponsored. 

A high school lacrosse player turned track athlete, Lindsey Butler has spent her career defying expectations at the highest levels professional running has to offer—all on her own dime.

In this new episode of our Youtube series "Dialed", meet Lindsey as she prepares for this week's USA Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Icahn Stadium in NYC, where she'll line up against the nation's best with nothing guaranteed—and everything to prove.

ABOUT THE UNSPONSORED PROJECT

The Unsponsored Project aims to solve a problem in professional running where athletes compete at elite levels, but receive no monetary compensation from the brands whose gear they wear on the track.

For this week's USA Championships, we’ve provided 80 competing athletes with 100% unbranded kits to represent themselves, cash for travel/lodging/anything else they may need, and a contract featuring an immediate opt-out clause if another brand comes along with a larger deal.

To-date, 12 Unsponsored Project athletes have gone on to sign traditional footwear deals.
