Following its Summer 2020 collection in collaboration with five iconic designers, Nike has unveiled its new federation uniforms for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The new range includes apparel for U.S. basketball athletes, progressive advances in track and field kits and vibrant styles for those competing in skateboarding.
The U.S. women’s basketball team’s red uniform features classic blocked typography on the chest. The garment’s navy side panels are an ode to previous designs, while the twelve stars stand for the number of players on the team. The 2020 Athletics uniform pieces for track and field athletes have been engineered from the company’s new Dri-FIT Aeroswift material that helps manage sweat. Finally, skateboarding athletes representing the States, France and Brazil will sport uniforms designed by Dutch artist Parra made out of 100 percent recycled polyester arriving in bold patterns to celebrate each nation’s unique skate culture.
The 2020 Tokyo Olympics commences on July 24 so in the meantime, take a detailed look at the pieces in the gallery above.
Following its special five-pack of Olympic Ring-colored Air Max 97s, Nike has unveiled another iteration to the classic silhouette ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Dubbed “Gold Medal,” the shoe is dressed in gold from head-to-toe, sporting subtle accents of black and red.
The sneaker arrives in its signature design featuring a wave panel constructed with a metallic gold upper, 3M reflective accents and a full-length Air Max unit. Subtle hints of black tones can be found throughout the collar, while touches of red hues have been incorporated on the heel pull and underfoot Swoosh. Rounding out the pair is the brand’s iconic Swoosh branding embossed on the mid panel and tongue.
There is no official release date for the Air Max 97 “Gold Medal” yet, so stay tuned while we wait for more details to surface.
