Allyson Felix's Sneaker Closet Is Pretty Amazing

Our friends over at NiceKicks.com bring you an inside look at the shoe collection of Olympic gold medal sprinter Allyson Felix. Named "First Lady" of the Nice Kicks "Sneak Peek" series, Felix has an impressive set-up—an entire room lined with shelving, open cubbies and display cabinets filled with shoes.

Felix credits the rise of her sneaker collection to her signing with Nike in 2010.
