Nike presented the Team USA kits for the Paris Olympics and the high cut on the woman track & field one has athletes worried
Steeplechaser Colleen Quigley: “They are absolutely not made for performance.”
Runner Lauren Fleshman: “Professional athletes should be able to compete without dedicating brain space to constant pube vigilance or the mental gymnastics of having every vulnerable piece of your body on display. Women’s kits should be in service to performance, mentally and physically. If this outfit was truly beneficial to physical performance, men would wear it.”
Long Jumper Tara Davis-Woodhall: “Wait my hoo haa is gonna be out.”
Nike states that every athlete has the option to wear shorts
