    Default London 2012: Team GB Olympic kit revealed

    Sorry Stella McCartney
    but I think it needs to be simpler and bolder.
    There should be red in the Union Flag

    This is Great Britain, our flag is an emblem to be proud of

    In my opinion it is dull, boring and an insult.

    What a boring flag. IMHO the traditional Union Jack would have been more colorful and likely more appropriate.

    Who is the short woman? Is she a gymnast?

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Hi Folks.....

    Agree with all comments..... No Cross of St.George, No Cross of St.Patrick..... No red at all in the Union Flag part of the kit.....

    Still, I suppose it will line the pockets of the designer.....

    Sues..... The young lady second from the left is the 17 year old Paralympic swimmer Eleanor Simmonds.....

    Kindest Regards.....

    Ollie.

    Thanks Ollie, I thought gymnast because she reminds me of Mary Lou Retten.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Never flown the Union Jack in my life - so am quite happy that it isnt prominent.

    Why bother redesigning the kit anyway? Nothing wrong with what we already had. This will just make it harder to see our competitors.

    I have to admit, if you hadn't said this was the GB team suit, I wouldn't have known it from a quick glance. It would be like the US team having pale red stripes on a white suit with blue socks. Too bad. I like it when the teams' uniforms clearly reflect the national flag ... makes it easier to keep track of whose doing what!
