Having an interest in the U.S. Olympic team putting on a good impression to both Americans and the rest of the world, it must be said these are the worst uniforms I have ever seen. They simply do not represent an American flavor. The uniform hats look terrible, like something out of a bad movie of French resistant fighters of World War II.
The uniform should have a quintessential American flavor. such as a Western style broad brim hat or New York City business hats of the 1930s or even 17th Century coon-skin caps, with a uniform to match that says “American.”
As for the uniforms being made in China it just shows they are playing the free enterprise system better then we are. Whoever approved this uniform should be told in a blunt American style, “Your fired — outta here.”
