Anta Unveils the Official Outfit for Team China at the Olympics

— June 27, 2024 — Eco
Anta, a leading sportswear company based in Quanzhou, China, has revealed the official outfit for Team China at the Paris Olympics. This outfit is designed for medal ceremonies and its design emphasizes sustainability by incorporating recycled fibers. Overall, the make of the outfit has reduced carbon emissions by over 50% and as such, it is certified as carbon-neutral.

Renowned director Zhang Yimou contributed as a design consultant for the official outfit for Team China, integrating traditional Chinese elements such as the dragon, embossing, patchwork, and embroidery. The design is meant not only to highlight Chinese cultural aesthetics but also to represent the determination and spirit of contemporary Chinese athletes.

The use of recycled materials and carbon-neutral certification appeal to environmentally conscious individuals. Additionally, the involvement of a prominent designer and the incorporation of cultural elements make the outfit a symbol of national pride and innovation
