Ralph Lauren Unveils Team USA's 2018 Winter Olympic Uniforms

2018 US Winter Olympian Gus Kenworthy

Since 2008, fashion designer Ralph Lauren has outfitted Team USA for the Olympics and Paralympics.

With the 2018 Winter Games just weeks away, RL unveiled his designs today for the opening and closing ceremony uniforms.

This year's designs include "wearable heating technology."

From USA Today:

Roundly mocked in 2014 for a chaotic, patchwork cardigan sweater, the brand went classic red, white and blue this time around for the opening ceremony and white for the closing parade of athletes in Pyeongchang, South Korea. Both have a cozy bit of technology built in to keep athletes extra warm.

Athletes will be treated to stretchy skinny jeans and a far less busily designed sweater for opening, with a stretch knit pant — think structured sweat pant — for closing. The jeans have moto-inspired seaming. Accessories include a navy wool ski hat and USA-themed navy bandanna. On the athletes’ feet will be brown suede mountaineering boots with red laces for the outdoor opening.

And then there are the gloves. They’re more Ralph than Ralph himself, a Western style in suede with fringe in rawhide brown and decorated in hand-beaded Olympic rings and an American flag. They’re lined in white and fit over the wrists. Warm, yes. Yee haw! Lasso not included.
