Simone took “Train like a beast” VERY literally… Soo you remember the motivational tanks of the 2000s right?! Let me refresh your memory… “Train like a BEAST look like a beauty.” Back in 2011, before POPFLEX was a thing, I sold these tanks out of my parents’ garage. Little did I know, a young future superstar bought one and took the phrase so literally that one day she would become the world’s most decorated gymnast of ALL TIME.     SIMONE BILES!! Ahhh how cool!

Were women in the room during the design process? Concern aside, the comments did not disappoint It’s pretty clear that we’re all on the same page… The real question… Jokes aside, there’s a real conversation we need to have about the design differences between men’s and women’s uniforms. Are they different for functional purposes? Or are women’s uniforms designed to be skimpier because it draws spectatorship? I have read several articles since that original IG post, and Nike has said they have many more styles of the Olympic track uniforms for the athletes to choose from. However no official statement (so far) on whether the design team working on that women’s kit consisted of any women. Post credit: @citiusmag | Original image: @pacephoto   I do wonder what I would do… Anyway, what do you think of the Nike Olympic track uniforms reveal? Let’s discuss in the comments!
