The quality of those Olympic jerseys was superior to the Reebok jerseys, regardless of what you thought of the design.

I'm pretty sure Nike is very responsible for the fabrics and materials, namely the weird plastic lace print instead of actual laces. Nike certainly has a big hand in producing certain design elements, as does Reebok.

For instance, something like the squared off shoulders. No team came up with that, it's a Reebok thing. Teams use it, but they just use elements and patterns that Reebok makes available to them.
