A gold medal for crisp, clean uniforms. Hopefully our performanceat the Games will be just as good if not better.

How does one say ugly in Chinese?

The outfits don't make them look athletic at all. The beige reallydoesn't go well. I've never been a fan of short sleeved jackets.The hats look like the ones my parents would by for $1.99, to covertheir heads, when we painted our house. Definitely a thumbs down.Some of the other outfits on the HBC web site are okay, but theydon't come in larger sizes.

The actual clothing looks good. Whoever put together the photoshootshould be fired.

Pretty tacky, to say the least!

Out of the countries I was able to watch enter the stadium, Canadahad one of the worst outfits. They could have been designed a lotnicer.

2 billion or so television viewers over the next two weeks will seeour athletes wearing what? Surely we can go back to Roots producingour uniforms from now on. It was an epic fail on HBC's part, andlet's move on the 2010 Vancouver's uniforms now. Look awaychildren, nothing to see here.

Only one word can describe these togs: FUGLY. Fusion of rhymes withclucking and ugly. The multi-colour track suits look like they weredesigned by ravers on a bad ecstasy trip. Where is Roots whenCanada's athletes need them most?

It looks like we are going for gold in the lesser known but covetedhouse painting competition! Go Canada!

The hats are cool. The rest, including the models, aren't cool atall.

Absolutely hideous!!

Very nice. Comfortable, light-weight, nice styling going on here.Love the leaves fading upward. Great job, better than just red andwhite with a patch on the chest. A plus.

BORING. No pizzazz ... and no personality. They should havefeatured more red, and less pattern. Our flag is simple and says alot. Our uniforms should have reflected the flag. They should holdcontests to design these things. Kids in design school could dobetter.
