Athletes from Greece, Ukraine, Slovakia, Latvia, Croatia, and Kosovo will wear clothing by the Polish sports label 4F at this year's Olympic Games in Paris.

The Polish company has also designed outfits for the Polish athletes.

The ‘Paris’ collections were presented on Tuesday in Warsaw. They were prepared by 4F's design team in close cooperation with six Olympic and three Paralympic committees, as well as athletes.

“This will be the eighth Games in total where we will be present as a sponsor and partner of the Olympic committees. That's 14 years of gathering experience and developing the standard of Olympic collections, which we create with state-of-the-art, ultralight materials based on design thought out to the smallest detail,” the label’s founder, Igor Klaja, said.
“We will be highly visible in Paris with hundreds of Olympic athletes who will wear carefully designed outfits with the 4F logo,” he added.

The company has designed a set of Olympic clothing for six countries (plus Poland), including outfits for the opening ceremony, medal ceremonies, casual wear, and training clothes. All outfits for the opening ceremony were sewn in Poland.

The Olympic Games in Paris will run from July 26 to August 11, followed by the Paralympic Games from August 28 to September 8.

Since 2013, the 4F label has been a sponsor of the Polish Athletics Association, and a deal has recently been agreed to extend the cooperation for an additional 8 years.
