about all the GB 2012 OLYMPIC SWIMWEAR
 
Referring to all GB 2012 London olympic swimwear (UPDATES)
Byron s tread.
All the Adidas GB olympics swimwear were ALL designed by Stella M ccartney the british designer for the Adidas olympic 2012 games in London .
JJB SWIMWEAR ALSO SELLS THEM AND EVEN CHEAPER.
But does the upper red band on the suit have a signification of some kind or is it just designed without any signification.

Stella Mccarney allso designed the Beijing olympic swimwear worn by Tom Daley.
Hmm I womder if a email was sent to her about getting this suit id she could direct us to haow to get it.

Byron 05-13-2012 03:55 PM

designer ID
 
:confused: Don't know but it's not her name on his underpants
here - can anyone work out the brand name?
Also guy to his right in red would seem to be a Canadian diver
but the guy to his left has something on the chest of his dark
polo shirt which I cannot read.

Btw he's just written a book - can't be many who's done his autobiography when still a week off his eighteenth birthday !

Re.Team GB swimsuits
 
Wiggle seems to have sold out already for the London 2012 design.
Btw , hasn't JJB Sports been swallowed by Sports Direct ?

louis 05-13-2012 11:11 PM

jjb sports
 
Perhaps anyway they still have a web site.

Byron 05-14-2012 01:59 AM

Team GB suits
 
Yep - sportswear company name changes can be as confusing as all the swapping around done by the pub. chains
(but Wiggle were still 19p cheaper).

Adidas kit for Team GB
 
The show put on for launching the Olympics 2012 designs at the Tower of London is on YouTube but I can't say I was greatly impressed and couldn't see any swimsuits.
Her intention it seems was to take the red out of the Union Flag and then let it reappear as socks, shoes, shirt trim, collars, waistbands, etc.
IMHO a bit of a mess (and poor Andy Murray (tennis) looked as if he wished to be anywhere in the world than as a model on that stage).

Tom Daley looking a bit older here - not sure at what event he is shown but his blue speedo appears to be from the time of Speedo sponsorship and not the blue
Adidas suit you seek.

As an aside, who will be lighting the Olympic Flame for 2012 at the opening ceremony?
Some say David Beckham* - my money is on Tom Daley.

* or "Sir" David (somebody may know more than we do - he was so introduced
in Athens last week)

(will post the pic if I can do a link accurately).


Btw I have just done an update in the Off Topic Forum

Thousands of pics of Tom Daley on the internet but don't think I've seen this one before (on a beach holiday with GB diving team).
Unusual to see him standing in the sea ( Adidas black speedos I think).

I think Dayley was in Melbourne.

LOL - I am grateful for that. I have been scratching my head asking myself which beach location in the UK . There is no indication with the photo but having now seen a date for it (12-16-2011) and with those tans too, it HAS to be Oz!
Same day same location he is also with another teammate with a ball between them:

Well, well, she and/or Adidas seem to have had a last minute change of mind
as this is what we now see as latest Team GB suit:

If hot means very expensive for these items I would say yes, burning like a cauldron !

Torchwatch 07-31-2012 05:57 PM

Strange....... very strange, team GB wear Adidas, this is Speedo stuff

Byron 07-31-2012 08:11 PM

stranger and stranger...
 
For the blue GBR Speedo* Ebay now says this listing is removed.
The towel remains as "a very rare item" at $299.
Both items come (came) seemingly from Santa Monica CA.

*solid blue GBR suits were Speedo - not to be confused with current 2012 Olympic suits for Team GB which are by Adidas via Stella McCartney. A last minute design change seems to have occurred however as the red/whit/blue we now see are not the official solid dark blue suits with red waistband as presented earlier in the year (and which were available to purchase).
A question to Adidas to explain the change has gone unanswered (and Louis is no doubt right to guess that the same availability to purchase will not occur).

Torchwatch 08-01-2012 09:43 PM

There seems to be a range of Team GB supporters clothing and accessories. They were made available to the public, many assumed the athletes would be wearing and competing in it and so bought it.
A bit of a confidence trick it seems.

Byron 08-06-2012 11:37 PM

more confusion
 
http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8...pvpco1_500.jpg

Just found this pic I have not seen before.
We can guess identities but where and when and what event I do not know.
It seems that Adidas version1 Team GB suits did get wet somewhere.

sebbie 08-07-2012 04:20 PM

it sused to be that the male divers at olympics wore the suits with 4 inch sides and the swimmers wore the skimpier ones with 1 1/2 inch sides. Now, all the male divers seem to wear suits with 1 1/2 to 2 inch sides, even as the swimmers wear the jammers.

Byron 08-07-2012 05:01 PM

One and a half...
 
:D .. that's a bit exaggerated but very nice they look too.........

It's "saluting" the win!

Byron 08-08-2012 10:19 PM

No.2....
 
....seems to be saluting well ( but so are all the others).

At least we are spared an explanation of needing a pee (but I guess their event is over in quick time).
We have recently been regailed (unnecessarily I would have thought) with the confessions of Lochte and Phelps that hours of swimming training regularly require bladder relief into the pool water - a well known practise apparently.

Nothing surprising there but one commentator says "undetectable" - but I am sure I have read of a chemical from Germany which can reveal such actions with dark blue coloring if added to the pool water. To conclude this moronic nonsense I guess that the speed of movement of such olympic athletes in training is such that there will then be denials as to who was responsible for the evidence which appears !
