Need to see what it looks like from behind. That's the view the rest of the competitors will be seeing most of.

You don't have much confidence in our rowers.

I like the kit better than London 2012 although that grew on me.
100 days to the games - wow the 4 years go to quick |

Why haven't they used the actual coat of arms instead of a mocked up version? Weren't they allowed?

I don't like it as much as the London 2012 kit but at least it's distinctive. Better than just having a generic kit which a lot of countries have

![]() (Just kidding) I suppose sailing is another one where they're usually facing the competitors. |

Some have compared it to the Charlie's Angels logo. I prefer to think of it as the New Avengers one. Steed, Purdey, and Gambit. Proper GB.

They may have had to re-image the coat of arms to circumnavigate strict IOC rules on logo's on uniforms. I recall issues since 08 for the Canadian hockey team at the Winter Games.
Apart from that I quite like this year's uniforms, better than some we've had. |

Hopefully it will be distinctive enough to stand out during events.
I find this years GB and CZE triathlon kit too similar when watching the ITU races, often thinking it's a Brit I'm seeing in the pack when it's a Czech. |
