philly97flyer Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 An athletic jacket with a shirt and tie on under it makes me immediately think of Joe Paterno.Which is unfortunate because if not for the tarnishing due to association, it's an excellent look.In the overreactive society we live in, I'm surprised we haven't banned that look.

McCall Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Did the women's basketball uniforms ever have the different color back on the shorts like the men, or were theirs always normal? Because they're normal for the game now against Croatia. If they were different for the friendlies, it leaves hope that maybe the guys will wear normal for the Olympics... a little hope, at least. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were different for the friendlies, it leaves hope that maybe the guys will wear normal for the Olympics... a little hope, at least.Women were just like the men for friendlies. Just red trim/back on homes. I really hope they did change them because they looked like crap. Even if all they did was replace the shorts the improvement is vast.Note: Now all Nike teams are using the same template. USA and Canada are almost twins except for word marks and black instead of navy blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis2051 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 And the berets are...hideous. They look better when worn properly. Bad example.Actually that's the perfect example. Why? Because no one in this country knows how to wear a beret - because no one in this country wears berets!Just give them nice ballcap and be done with it. Hell, you might even sell a few.This one would have been perfect...Classy, and something that people actually would wear. And guess who makes it? Ralph Lauren! So close...

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

walby2 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Interesting to see the split during the athletes parade. There was a good mix of countries wearing blazers and ties, track suits and in some cases, ethnic costume. Track suits belong in the athletes village and at the venues. They generally look out of place at an opening ceremony. That's why Team USA looked really good, beret or no beret. Ballcaps, on the other hand, would have looked completely dumb with blazers. It just isn't done and anyone who actually does it should buy a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcameronh Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I think I would have preferred what they have been wearing at the podium at the opening ceremonies. It's not as dressy but this is a sporting event so why not look sporty? I think maybe this would have looked good with the white ball cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis2051 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 That with the white ballcap (or even blue) would have been great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Apparently the outdoor events use a dark tan jacket instead. That's what I saw for archery and the shooting medal ceremonies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
