As part of its large-scale announcements regarding the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Nike has revealed that it will be outfitting the USA, France, and Brazil skate teams this summer. Each federation will be outfitted with uniforms that have been designed by Dutch artist Piet Parra, a frequent Nike collaborator.

The Nike SB uniforms put sustainability at the forefront of their design, as they are made from 100 percent recycled polyester and utilize Nike’s pattern efficiency techniques to eliminate waste in the production process.

Each jersey has a colorful landscape design — a Piet Parra signature — that is unique to the country it represents. The USA jersey is inspired by basketball jerseys and features a bald eagle stitched on the lower left of the jersey. The Brazil jersey is inspired by football jerseys and features a toucan, which represents happiness, on the lower left of the jersey. The French jersey is a nod to traditional tennis jerseys and features a Rooster on the left chest.

In addition, Nike will launch special editions of the Bruin Zoom X and Bruin React, both of which come in two colorways. Check out the collection above.
