A suit from Capitan America for Americans launching the Olympic challenge to their main opponents

Just under 285 days after the opening ceremony of the Pyeongchang 2018 Olympic Games, the US Olympic Committee has presented to the media the official outfit with which the athletes will be present at the 23rd Winter Olympics.

As is often the case with the Olympics, the American team has worn "special" uniforms over the traditional World Cup races and even in the upcoming Five-Stars show, the star and strip team will show off a very patriotic outfit. Much of the Olympic race nuts are characterized by the blue color and the inevitable presence of white stars. The Alpine Ski Team, who has usually used us in different colors, has also adapted to the US press. Mikaela Shiffrin and Julia Mancuso's women's uniform features a style that recalls the eighties, with a large eight-pointed star at the heart of the heart that divides the bright red of the top of the suit From the predominant blue that characterizes the bottom. The men's suit worn on occasion by Ted Ligety, instead, recalls Captain America's superhero costume. The huge white star in the middle of the chest and the white-red vertical stripes that interrupt the blue look like the giant's championship a winter version of the famous comic book character. Also original the biathlon teams' Olympic outfits that if in the World Cup will keep the usual electric orange, the Olympics will be presented with a blue suit that blurs to white at hands and feet level. Same style as well for the cross country team who will present a "rain" of white stars at the height of the chest of athletes. They did not surrender to the blue instead of the freestyle skiing athletes and the toy guys who will be present at the Korean racing route with a black suit, but there will be no recalls in American colors.
