It’s that time of year when the biggest athletic apparel and footwear corporations unveil their team kits for this year’s Olympics, which will take place in Paris between 26 July and 11 August 2024.
Since then, many Nike-sponsored athletes have stepped up to support the design. The company and the American national governing body, USATF, also claim that athletes were consulted during the design process,according to NPR.
Adidas’ kit, in contrast, appears more conservative, with no pieces seemingly designed to reveal more skin than necessary.
Notably, Tom Daley’s swimming briefs, a testament to his rigorous training for the Olympics, caught our eye. Of course, the briefs aren’t just an aesthetic choice; full-body swimsuits werebanned from competitionsin 2010.
“Heading into my fifth Olympics, I can genuinely say that nothing compares to competing in my Team GB kit, knowing that all the training I’ve done is gearing towards hopefully winning a medal for my country,” said Daley. “This new kit totally sums up that special feeling, and I cannot wait to wear it in Paris this Summer”.
