The U.S.A Olympic Snowboard Team is set to have uniforms designed by Burton in conjunction with Gore-tex for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Burton designed the standout white pinstripe uniforms worn at the last Winter Olympics (pictured above) and has already begun the rider consultation process on the new designs. Jake Burton said in the Press Release “We have already brought together our creative people with some of our country’s best snowboarders to ensure that the final product will represent the riders, the sport and the U.S.A. in an authentic way.” Check here for the story at Transworld Business.
