Nike debuts sports hijab for Muslim females
March 8, 2017
Nike’s new “Pro Hijab” will be available in the spring. The head covering is made from lightweight polyester and comes with small holes to make it breathable while remaining opaque. It took Nike 13 months to design the hijab, which was created after some Muslim athletes complained about having to wear traditional hijabs during sporting events.
