I was also not a huge fan of the Team Canada gear that I checked out at the Bay a few weeks ago. Too much black in the designs and that isn't even a Canadian color! :-( Bring back Roots as the designer please!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-usas-opening-ceremony-uniforms#post-1377582 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 21:24:13 +0000 Smurfette 1377582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a fan! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-usas-opening-ceremony-uniforms#post-1377576 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 21:20:48 +0000 hellocupcake 1377576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@honeybear: It's expensive to be American. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-usas-opening-ceremony-uniforms#post-1377241 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 18:16:12 +0000 spaniellove 1377241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like them!

Are they fashion forward? Heck no... I think the whole point of the Opening Ceremonies is to be a little over the top. The whole pageantry thing..These work for sure on that level. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-usas-opening-ceremony-uniforms#post-1376729 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 12:15:39 +0000 blackbird 1376729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They're tacky but I kind of like them!

There are a lot of countries working with a red, white, and blue color scheme--the UK, France, and Australia come to mind--and they could easily all sort of look the same! I sort of prefer France's take on the ski jacket/sweatpants look, and the Norwegian curlers win the red, white, and blue statement-making outfit award, in my opinion :) : </p> <p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/22/sports/olympics/norwegian-curlers-are-back-and-so-are-their-pants.html?_r=0" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/22/sports/olympics/norwegian-curlers-are-back-and-so-are-their-pants.html?_r=0</a> . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-usas-opening-ceremony-uniforms#post-1376658 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 11:24:28 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1376658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think they look awful! </p>
