How Oceania’s fastest woman, Zoe Hobbs, embodies the spirit and strength of Tiffany & Co.

Denizen Partnership

Zoe Hobbs, Oceania’s fastest woman, embodies the same precision, resilience, and elegance as HardWear by Tiffany — each stride and each link a testament to the power of potential.

Zoe Hobbs moves with a precision born from years of relentless work. The New Zealand sprinter, Olympian, and fastest woman in Oceania has built a career centred on focus, grit, and an unwavering belief in what’s possible.  For her, speed is only half the story; the unseen hours of training, recovery, travel, and mental preparation forge real strength.

For our Denizen cover shoot Hobbs shared, “True strength isn’t given, it’s built through discipline, resilience, and an unbreakable belief that you can defy the limits set for you.” It is this exact ethos that initially drew the athlete to HardWear by Tiffany — jewellery as bold and daring as Hobbs herself. Each link, crafted with intention, embodies resilience, determination, and enduring power, echoing the qualities Hobbs cultivates every day on and off the track.

Her decades of dedication crystallised in a defining moment when she broke the 100m sub-11 second barrier and transformed her long-held dream of going pro into a tangible reality. Every aspect of Hobbs’ career mirrors the craftsmanship of HardWear by Tiffany — centred on strength, and honed with intention. “HardWear is power refined, strength forged into elegance,” she says. Even setbacks, like a torn hamstring, are approached as moments to rebuild, refine, and come back stronger. “Every link in HardWear by Tiffany tells a story, just like every stage of my journey. It’s a reminder of how far I’ve come, and how far I still want to go.” On the track, the bold jewellery mirrors the strength of her stride; off it, it reflects a commitment to excellence and a desire to inspire others, especially young women chasing paths that once seemed unreachable.

“HardWear by Tiffany’s bold lines and unapologetic structure make it more than just jewellery. It’s power refined, strength forged into elegance.”

Looking ahead to World Championships, Commonwealth Games, and the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028, Hobbs is measuring success not only in seconds shaved and accolades, but in the integrity of her process, the precision of her preparation, and the clarity of her focus. Like each individual link in the HardWear by Tiffany collection, the building of Hobbs’ journey is deliberate, structured, and unapologetically strong.

Zoe Hobbs is running her own race; each stride a link in a seemingly unbreakable chain of momentum — built on patience, purpose, and an unwavering belief in her pursuit. “I believe in what’s next,” she says. “And I’m only just getting started.”
