Last week, Nike unveiled a series of uniforms that we will see during this year’s 2020 Olympic Summer Games in Tokyo, Japan. Above are a number of sports that are represented in the US as well as additional countries that include Brazil. Since the 2006 Olympic Winter Games in Torino, Italy, US athletes on the podium have worn the brand which showcases a collection of high-performance apparel to footwear (including a soccer cleat made with 3-D printed materials and running spikes optimized for short-distance sprinting). This includes when they’re on the podium as well as when they’re competing in a number of events that include track and field, soccer, speed skating etc. The Nike kit will continue to be worn especially with the deal inked last year that will go through the 2028 Summer Games in Los Angeles. This year, you’ll see the brand’s worn by athletes that are competing in track and field, basketball, soccer and skateboarding. The uniforms take into account that the weather in Tokyo in August will be extremely muggy and humidity as opposed to the 78 degree temperatures in Rio. In addition, sustainability has been something that has been of great importance since the 2000 Olympic Summer Games in Sydney, Australia. Below are some of the uniforms for the US, Brazil and France.
