UNVEILED: Team USA's 2014 Olympics Closing Ceremony Uniforms by Ralph Lauren
by Danica Lo
We're still 100 days out from the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, but the excitement has already begun! Today, the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) revealed the brand-new U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Closing Ceremony Parade Uniforms and "casual village wear" for the national teams--and, ta-da, they're designed by the one and only Ralph Lauren.
"When the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic teams march into the Fisht Olympic Stadium in Sochi, they will carry with them the support of all Americans," a USOC rep said in a statement. "Ralph Lauren takes great pride in outfitting Team USA, and the Closing Ceremony garments for the 2014 U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams reflect the pride and embody the emotion of this special moment."

Want to know what we're extra excited about this time around? Ralph Lauren's U.S. Olympic Team uniforms will proudly bear the label "Made in the USA" for 2014! According to reports, the company commissioned work from more than 40 domestic vendors--including ranchers, yarn spinners, and sewers from all over the country--to produce the 2014 collection.
The 2014 Sochi Olympics look will feature Ralph Lauren signature staples--including wooly sweaters, performance tees and fleeces (it's the winter Olympics, after all), and, of course, the brand's iconic polo shirts. There will also be plenty of knit hats, gloves, scarves, and bags on offer.
