I think this article I read recently on the U.S. team’s Olympic uniforms is pretty funny. The look is supposed to be a combination of high-tech materials with retro styling.
My favorite quote about the uniforms? “The parade pant is nylon, and the style is supposed to be a mix of a formal dress style and a snowboard pant.” Sort of tuxedo meets sports attire?
Perhaps that quote is to appease the snow boarders, who are apparently the most fickle of athletes when it comes to fashion.
