Typical British mentality of finding a fault in everything.
Hardly any red on the 1996 2000 or 2004 kits and the 1992 kit was just disgusting. Best kit for 20 years but just because it was designed by a Brit who in a world leader in their chosen field we as a nation feel a need to become outraged. Rule Brittania |

I haven't followed the GB team's sartorial fortunes with quite the assiduity of MIM, neither am I an expert in careers in women's fashion, but I'd have preferred to see our lot draped in the union flag for a home Olympics - save of course, for Victoria Pendleton, who should honour the original games(ish) by competing naked.

Outsourcing the skeet shooting finals to the Falklands?

It would send the right message.
As would 'Kiss my Argies' emblazoned on the rump of all our athletes. Now THAT'S the sort of design idea we needed in the mix. I'm wasted ... on here. |

I quite like it, but I don't really like Black Shoes on a tennis player.

Dress is at all times a frivolous distinction, and excessive solicitude about it often destroys its own aim, imo.

"Yes but how much red would you incorporate!?" By the look of it a couple of bottles so far, the day is young. |

Joel....can't agree more about the shoes but, for me, without going into pages of detail about what I don't like, the first thing is the lack of a cohesiveness in the designs for
the different sports! It kind of looks as if Stella put up a load of variants and someone said "well we've paid for them all so we may as well use them all! Looking at the tennis kit it looks as though someone said "Ok we'll go with the top but can you just pop down to the sports store and pick up some shoes and shorts"! It will only look good on an ugly tennis player......such as mmmm! |

What was everyone expecting?
The Olympic Logo - Lisa Simpson blowing a Lego Soldier - set the bar pretty low, didn't it? |

I would happily pay £15.37 to Sport Relief if Jessica Ennis would cycle that outfit over to me right now. We're both probably in London so it shouldn't get offensively sweaty.

Can someone with the know how please put up a photo of the Olympics officials uniforms?
The fifth entry in Google is good. Cheers..... |

It might sound like I'm batting for the other side, but as a citizen of Ireland (you might call it the Republic of Ireland, or Eire) why is Northern Ireland not mentioned on the kit. My eyes were drawn to Jessica Ennis's chest area and I see Great Britain. No mention of Northern Ireland. Money back, full refund imo.

Best, and more pertinent response yet about this from Jess Eadie (Olympic Rower):
jessica eddie @jesseddie Reply Retweet Favorite So Olympic kit...I like it! Heard lots of negative comments,but to all those people...don't worry,you won't be wearing it! |
By:
I think it looks terribel on jessica ennis -she needs to take it off immediately!
|
By:
I think some of the kit does look ok but, for Gods sake, if someone turned up in that tennis kit at my gym I think they would be politely asked to leave.

Who is Jessica Eddie?

By:
Serious question.
Why do women athletes show their tummy? Why not wear a standard top? |

If they were to remove all of the blue, Jessie's fluffit would be on full display. |

Jess trains in Meersbrook park when shes up here, about 5 minutes walk from my house. The park has one of Sheffields steepest 7 hills. She always says hi back when she flies past.
