Team China unveils uniform for Rio Olympics

Xinhua, May 31, 2016 Adjust font size:

Team China unveiled its uniform for the upcoming Rio Olympic Games here on Tuesday, featuring a patriotic palette of red and yellow.

"We hope our athletes will feel like wearing our national flag when they step into the stadium at the opening ceremony," said designer Ye Chaoying.

Attending the uniform-unveiling ceremony were Olympic foil champion Lei Sheng, woman footballer Wang Shanshan and other Olympic athletes.

It's the third time for Lei to wear Olympic uniform, and he considered it the best, saying that "compared to 2008 and 2012 uniforms, I think the 2016 uniform is soft and I like it. I'm looking forward to Rio." Endit
