Ralph Lauren, the brand that designed the parade uniforms for the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams for a decade, opened the doors of its Madison Avenue headquarters for an up-close look at the collection.
Olympic snowboarder Red Gerard said the new designs strike the right balance.
“I’m typically more of a baggier, loose-fit guy, and I liked the direction they went with,” he said.
Paralympic snowboarder Brenna Huckaby added that the style competition between nations is part of the fun.
“We’re so competitive in everything,” she said. “it’s really fun seeing the other nations and what their opening ceremony outfit is, and being like, ‘Yeah, we’re way cooler.’”
The line blends performance with classic Americana style, offering more than 100 pieces of ceremony and Villagewear that athletes and fans can wear throughout the Games.
Team USA will debut the designs on the world stage during the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Games in February.
