With the 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games set to launch in just a few weeks, all eyes will be on the opening ceremony...one of my favorite parts to watch. And back again is fashion's powerhouse, Ralph Lauren, who has stepped up to the podium with a set of uniforms for Team USA made with an impressive list of sustainable and traceable materials.

It doesn't matter what sport you're in, it's one team wearing a mission of sustainability:

• Recycled Polyester reduces the use of virgin polyester - a petroleum-based material, and made from recycled plastic bottles
• Made in the USA and sourced from verified US-grown wool
• Recycled Nylon reduces the use of virgin nylon - a petroleum-based material 
• Recycled Down, reducing the impact on landfills

And if that isn't enough ...

INTRODUCING

SKYSCRAPE INTELLIGENT INSULATION

Debuting in the Team USA Opening Ceremony Anorak and the Villagewear Jacket, this innovative patented fabric responds to changes in temperature without the use of battery-powered or “wired” technology. As the temperature drops, the Skyscrape Intelligent Insulation expands, offering more insulation and warmth.

OUTFITTING TEAM USA

"Unlike most Olympic and Paralympic teams, American athletes are not supported by federal funding. Polo Ralph Lauren Team USA Collection sales support the United States Olympic and Paralympic Teams. We’re proud to help Team USA succeed in this year’s Games and beyond"
