Fine, I can see light materials for a hot Chinese summer may not be the most stylish and make you look somewhat sloppy being baggier and looser fitting, but there's nothing says that the designs (not even the hideous mix of zubazz pants, a hawaiian shirt gone wrong and Herb Tarlek patterns gone wrong) have to be so tacky...tshirts especially.

I like the t-shirts, but the rest has to go. The pants look like pyjamas.

I agree.
I think the shirts are great, but the pants have got to go.

I won't laugh too hard until I see what gems the States has produced.

I see that Ralph Lauren is contracted to create them:

Corduroys anyone? Cable knit warmups, perhaps?

Yikes.

The girls stuff is alright, whats with the flowery track suit? I guess the olympians can choose what they want to wear...Can't see too many straight guys choosing to wear that.

Has there been anything remotely stylish since the Bay took over? I hope they at least got a good deal on the material.

That track suit looks like something fat women wear to shopping malls. The headband makes me think of Survivor.

The t-shirts aren't bad, though.
