What Sneakers Does Livvy Dunne Wear?

NOBULL. In a four photo Instagram carousel on February 19, 2026, she announced the partnership wearing the Women's Allday Knit in a new Classic White Punch colorway, one of 12 launched alongside her, Sports Illustrated reported. The brand describes a breathable knit upper with a sock like fit and a lugged outsole for different surfaces.

"I've never believed in shortcuts, not in gymnastics, not in business and not in life," she said in a statement quoted by On3. Tom Brady, one of NOBULL's largest stakeholders, reshared the post. Two days later she told the New York Post her NOBULL shoes were something she could "always rely on."

Jimmy Choo at the VMAs

At the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards on September 7, Footwear News reported via GQ British Lifestyle, she skipped the platform trend for Jimmy Choo's Anouk pump in black patent leather. The pointed toe style sits on a nearly five inch needle heel. She wore it with a Dolce and Gabbana trouser suit and a black patent Dolce and Gabbana bag.

Why Gymnasts Compete Barefoot

On floor and beam, grip and feel on the apparatus matter more than cushioning, and judges deduct for flexed feet, so most of her competition photos show bare feet as a matter of the sport. Wikipedia records that she matched her career high of 9.925 on uneven bars in 2022, before an avulsion fracture in her kneecap ended her fifth season early.

The NIL Career

When the NCAA allowed athletes to earn from their name, image and likeness on July 2, 2021, she was projected to be the top earner thanks to five million followers. Deals with Grubhub, Vuori, Bodyarmor and American Eagle followed, and in July 2023 she launched The Livvy Fund to connect LSU's female athletes with brands. On3 put her graduation NIL valuation at $4.1 million.

On3 also lists partnerships with Accelerator Active Energy, Nautica and Crocs, and notes that she signed with the agency Wasserman after graduating. She made the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2024, and she appeared in Prime Video's The Money Game: LSU. For another athlete with a brand story, see Gina Carano, or our celebrities index.

Next Up: Baywatch

Fox announced on March 12, 2026 that she had joined its Baywatch reboot as Grace, described as "a highly enthusiastic junior lifeguard." Variety listed a cast including Stephen Amell, Shay Mitchell, Hassie Harrison and Brooks Nader. She is also in a relationship with Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, who formerly pitched for LSU, Wikipedia notes.
